Everything Art Wanderlust 2017 - One Collage Challenge

Hi Everyone!

Everything Art's Wanderlust 2017 Class is coming to an end. I haven't managed to keep up with the fortnightly classes very well, but I did finish the monthly One Collage Challenge. We worked on a single collage piece throughout the year, with monthly prompts.

This was my collage before the final scary step...


To finish, we were told to cut our collage up, then rearrange the pieces in our art journal, adding a 'poem' of sentences we had found in a book. 


I'm celebrating the end of this wonderful challenge, so I shall link my artwork to Sheila's challenge at Art Journal Journey.

Happy Monday!

  2. What a very interesting collage, especially the way you have made it then cutting it up and adding a poem. Finishing something you have been making for a year is certainly a big cause for celebration. I love the colours in this one too.
    Thanks for joining in the Celebration.

  3. This turned out beautifully, Alison. I would have been worried, too. But you cut it just perfectly and chose just the right places to fit everything back together. I would be celebrating, too. Thanks for sharing this completed masterpiece with us at Art Journal Journey.

  6. Both the original and the new collage look great. Interesting how different they both though. I guess it's a good lesson in letting go to see what comes along. Thanks for sharing. hugs-Erika

  9. Amazing and you are so brave to cut up your journal page, the result page that you created is stunning - I love it 😁. The advent envelopes from your daughter is so thoughtful, I bet it's so exciting opening each one! You must miss her loads and it must be great to have Instagram to stay in touch 😁. I hope you had a lovely weekend and wishing you a happy week! J 😊

  11. Terrifying and very exciting to do that final step - it's beautiful both before and after. Congratulations on getting at least part of the course completed - I'm going to be putting it all on a hard disk for "later" again!
