At the beginning of the year, I found a little notebook at a thrift shop, and decided to try to do a daily collage to fill it. I created 58 daily collages. This post is the start of the series of all of them. I am really proud of the work I did. Not all of the pieces are as successful as the others but they all turned out good in my eyes. Another artist online (I cannot remember who) was talking about using a 3 plus 3 prompt – 3 papers of one color family, and 3 neutrals. So that was my prompt for this series. There are a few pieces where I split one of the papers and repeated it but the prompt was still mainly followed. Most of the papers were created by me with a few exceptions. The collage papers were painted with acrylic paint or ink, or drawn with marker or pen, or made using my gel plate. Some are regular (non-see through) paper, many are tissue or rice papers. I did not add any embellishments besides the pasted paper. Below are the first 10 of the 58 I created. I hope you enjoy.
Thank you for checking out my collage series. I will post the others as well.
