Casual Collaging

A few months back, I read this article about collaging. I decided to try it out, and little did I know then, collaging would be a long time hobby of mine! A few days ago, I scanned my favorite collages, and here I am to share them:
 
I collaged the cover of my journal
 ^These clippings were mostly found from my old Seventeen magazines from 7th grade.

I think this is my favorite collage. I found the photo in the middle from a Marie Claire magazine, and the hearts were cut out from an old dictionary.






The background was from a 1970's national geographic magazine that I got for like, 50 cents at a used bookstore. 

Seriously though.


Collaging is fun. What I love about it the most is you can have the artistic capabilities of a toddler and still create art.

  1. Hello,
    I really like your collages.
    Especially the 3rd collage. And the one with 'speak' on it. Thank you for giving me inpiration! I collected enough pictures and stuff to make thousands of collages, so I'm sure, tomorrow I will make one.
    Love
