This is such a beautiful post and it makes my heart so happy to find other creative souls in this space. You’re so right about collage! I haven’t touched it since secondary school when I was about 12, so many moons ago! This year alone I’ve created multiple pieces just using left overs or watercolour swatches to make new pieces of art from. I’m such a fan of anything taking more time and patience, anything art related creates such a gorgeous slow state of flow. I’m definitely going to subscribe and hope to join you soon. I’m based in the UK so think the timings will be fine 💞🌺🧡💫

That’s what I love about collage - it doesn’t have to be perfect and you can adjust it throughout the whole process. Looking forward to collage with you 🥰

Your collage pieces are gorgeous!! What type of scissors do you use?

Thanks so much Lisa! The larger scissors I’m using in the video are fancy ones I bought quite a few years ago, they are really sharp. Not sure where I bought them though…the smaller ones are just from my local drugstore, they are meant for clipping nails but perfect for cutting out detailed shapes!

Such a lovely post , can’t wait to see your beautiful collages and I was also thinking collage may come into my dailies some more this month… mixing it into our June Palettes!

Perhaps one month we should collaborate on a theme!

🦆Can you make a Spotted Woodpecker ?

Thanks for including my work from your Côte d’Azur session 🌟

Oh a woodpecker sounds like a great idea, thanks! And yes, let’s collaborate again soon 🥰

Your video on creating a colour palette was great btw, I had it on in the background while I was cutting all the papers 😊
