I\u2019m back in my studio, creating a new set of collages and I\u2019m finding it very interesting and fun. They don’t happen really quickly, they take time and lots of pondering of each little composition. Today, I\u2019m posting another 6 paper collages with another 6 still to come. This set is again very colourful. I do like lots of colour. The surfaces are a collection of painted papers, very colourful tissue, bits of pattern papers and even some seeds. The images of seeds are from photos of seeds in our garden. I had a bit of fun taking those photos and manipulating them to high contrast images which ended up being a nice source of texture in the collages. These collages are built up in layers, each layer attached with matte medium onto the paper and then onto the next layer. I will be posting these as well on our Etsy shop FoundMadeArt<\/strong><\/a>. They are priced quite affordably and we also offer Free Shipping anywhere. I’m hoping they find homes either alone or in groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, here is my second set of abstract collages. I haven\u2019t given them titles. I like the idea that each one is left to be interpreted by the viewer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
