Artful Collage

Remember the sneak peek I posted of the collage I was teaching for the LBH Art Group a few weeks ago?  Well, this is how it started. 

A box full of odds and ends paper scraps

and a pile of napkins

 plus a paint chip from the hardware store, some light bulb packaging, security envelopes, Hershey's kiss wrapper, a scrap of a Chinese restaurant menu, tissue paper, a doily, paint, stamps and ink... can you find them all?

And here's the finished collage (8" x 10").


Everyone in class had fun and every collage was unique and fabulous!  I announced at the beginning of class that no one would leave with a project exactly like mine or anyone else's - and they didn't!
