Ok..so.. I just “found” you today. I’m recently retired and totally getting into collage. I have an art studio downtown Salem, MA and LOVE YOUR STYLE! Also you’re a great teacher! The best thing about you is that you’re from BUFFALO! LOLOLOL. so am I. Please keep the videos coming! Thank you so much.
Hey Jolene! Thanks for saying hello! I am glad you found the videos helpful! that is awesome you have an art studio. Do you teach classes? and I will keep the videos coming!
I just came across this art form yesterday on instagram and got so hyped to get into it, as though something inside of me just clicked. And I'm very grateful for this series, it's exactly what I needed to learn more info. Thank you!
Sweet!! Found my way here from TikTok! Stoked🙏🏽 just received Japanese scissors I bought from your supplies list!! Thank you for sharing!!✂️✨💜p.s. 😢 I never evvver woulda thought to use books!😭I’m a writer so I guess I never even considered using them for collaging cuz I guess they’re kinda sacred to me but you are soooo right!!🙏🏽🙌🏽 they are beautiful sources for material!! I will be going through my donate pile tonight!😆😆
hey Teresa! I am so excited for you! thanks so much for saying hi! LOL it feels funny taking the knife to the book for the first time doesn't it! you are sacrificing it and giving it new life haha
Well now I know what to do with my moms old dusty national geographic and people magazine collection! Your videos are very well explained! Very glad I stumbled upon your channel!
This is great, and you suggested some things I wouldn't have thought of. I would love to see a "How to Collage" installment on ways to organize all those clippings and materials. It's hard to create when you are overwhelmed or can't find things in piles and boxes of random stuff.
Velvet Grace so awesome to hear! Thanks for letting me know! I’d you like, you can share your work at my Facebook group for folks learning and sharing their collage art facebook.com/groups/1528418140646951/
For this project, I printed cheap versions on my printer at home. When we agreed on the right design, I went to a professional print shop and got quality prints done. I saved money because o knew exactly what I need when it came time for the final draft
Hi from Australia 😁 loved the how to find images video and look forward to more. Also would like to see more videos of how you put a collage together as these are useful for inspiration and how to do it.
Hi Karen! I made a whole playlist about how to make collages. There are some awesome collage artists in Australia, I love Max Malone’s work. Ok also making a collage kit that I will be releasing on Monday.
Your process inspires me! I'm getting ready to officially retire and I need something productive to do. I don't consider myself an artist but I love color and I'm fascinated by the collage process. I find myself yelling at the TV as you manipulate images around. Sometimes I agree with your choices and sometimes I don't. My question is when do you know you are "done"? Sometimes I like your image and then you go and add a bunch more and I think it's cluttered. Is that just my preference? I tend to like things clean and simple. Is that an okay style?
I am a graphic designer at a Public Library and I just found your channel! Love it all! Library Sales are GOLDEN :)
Hahaha yes!! You have first pickings!
Brilliant
thanks!

Just getting into collage. This was the best/most helpful video ive come across so far!
Thank you! Let me know if there are any other videos you would like me to make.
I hadn't thought of library sales. Obvious once you mentioned it.

Hi Jerin! Glad you enjoyed and I was able to help!
I love all your suggestions! Also I check flyers, they're free! I found cool happy faces with sunglasses in the Walmart flyer ☺🤗😍
Thanks a good idea! I’m never gonna look at walls the same way again 🤗
Dont forget about "Little free libraries" My town has three and I live in a really small town!
Very good idea
Very useful thanks
You are welcome!
Been interested in collage making for a while and your work has inspired me to actually start! Thank you for these videos.
Velvet Grace so awesome to hear! Thanks for letting me know! I’d you like, you can share your work at my Facebook group for folks learning and sharing their collage art facebook.com/groups/1528418140646951/
I have the same incredible machine book. My local thrift store workers know me by a first name basis, they hang on to the good books and frames for me
Lol that’s some thrift status. Love it. A guy I buy from at a flea market works at a thrift and cherry picks some solid stuff
Love this very helpful I struggle to find affordable books and stuff
For this project, I printed cheap versions on my printer at home. When we agreed on the right design, I went to a professional print shop and got quality prints done. I saved money because o knew exactly what I need when it came time for the final draft
I made a video about finding cheap stuff, did you watch it?

You’re the freakin best!!!!!
Thanks again for the encouragement
Sometimes I check the recycling bin next to the mailboxes at my complex. Those bins are usually not too gross cuz it's all paper
yes! i scored a $50 spider man comic that way once.
Red, Do you ever photo copy the image in order to preserve the original?
Thank you, P. Welch
That's what I've been doing and so far so good.
you can also ask for old magazines from your doctors or dentist office. They might not be very good but there free.
ZzDe0 thanks, that’s a very good idea!
How did you find my video?
I've done this also...thinking of asking more doctor's/ dentists around me.
