Join me for weekly art demos to expand your mixed media collage tool box.

As a collage artist for over 30 years, my intention is to create from a deeply connected and joy-filled place, and inspire you to do the same. My courses reflects that intention as we quiet our minds and allow the art to be created from the highest part of who we are. I would be honored if joined me in taking this soul-fueled art adventure together!

Want to learn with me?
⭕️ I invite you to sign up for my FREE 5-day workshop COLLAGE KICKSTART where you will learn to make 7 collage papers and then transform them into a cohesive collage grid. Over 17K artists (beginning to expert) have taken this course so far. Sign up here www.collageworkshops.com/start

⭕️ Once I year I offer COLLAGE JOY, my mixed media master course, which starts where COLLAGE KICKSTART leaves off. Join wait list here www.collageworkshops.com/joy

I look forward to supporting your artistic journey.

Too many choices of papers = chaotic results = no joy. Yes! You described the problem I’ve been having. I’ve even been searching online and in my community for art courses to help me with the process because I’ve been so stumped, and I feel like you just gave it to me! Thank you so much! I’ve just discovered your channel and now I’m going to go watch your whole library! Thank you!

I am absolutely thrilled that my way of sorting could bring some order to your process. It made the world of difference in how I create when I stumbled on it a couple years ago. For me, the fewer papers to choose from, the better!
@tomasinaconti4140
@tomasinaconti4140 19 часов назад
Beautiful ! Your tutorials are excellent. Your explanation and thought process of how to choose papers in this is very helpful. I also admire your restraint to only use a few bits of those gorgeous papers out of all you chose. Time for me to catch up on more of your videos 🥰

Love this! I'm a mad scientist like you - love experimenting with all sorts of stuff, just to see what happens! Some disasters, some resounding and surprising successes. I'd love to have seen how you used tar gel, though. Did you paint it through the stencil? It's such gloopy stuff.
@catrains.artist
@catrains.artist 16 часов назад
Lovely to meet another mad scientist! With tar gel, I usually swirl it around with a knife or spoon onto the paper. Hard to use through a stencil.

One more thing I’ve learned: I used to obsess over torn vs. cut edges in my collages; I’ve seen that you don’t, and everything still looks great. So I’m not going to do that anymore!☺️

Catherine, On the image that didn't work so well (the bare branches on blue) do you think you could scan it and print on a heavier paper to get the image?
@catrains.artist
@catrains.artist 2 дня назад
Yes that would be possible. However with so many magazines to try, if one image doesn't work, I typically just move onto the next!

The great thing about this technique is that you can incorporate into a collage using an iron ... the iron softens the glue allowing it to adhere papers together without the need for aditional glue application
