    Creating a handmade custom DIY surreal art collage is easy! I share my tips and techniques on how I create my analog collages as I cut out pictures and illustrations out by hand with a small pair of scissors and a craft knife. Finding inspiration from old books is one of the most fun steps to this process. These can come from used books, encyclopedias, magazines, vintage postcards, or anything else you can find lying around your house. I find most of my books and magazines from thrift stores, antique stores, flea markets, Craigslist, or even on the side of the road! Watch as I arrange my elements and try different ideas as I talk through my process to create my final design.
    Collages made out of paper have a custom made feel that you can't get from a digital collage made in Photoshop. And, there is an added challenge of only being able to use materials that you have access to!
    Want to try creating your own? Just grab a magazine, scissors, and a glue stick!

    I loved this! I think the Antique patterns are End papers from old books. There is a whole world of people who love end papers from books. They are often illustrations that speak to the theme of the book. I am about 90% sure the Antiques mag republished End papers for their covers. Aren't they just beautiful?

      @scottworsley20 Před rokem

      It clicks with the jump needed to bridge the culture of classic life roles into something that is more of a legacy of this era - which seems like has been going since the dawn of time - that the dress is deeply material expression of the value of classic roles for peoples.

    Hi Rosie...I am curious why you don't scan in your magazine photos and print them out before you use them? I always feel compelled to do this so I can use the image again in another collage and preserve the original. Any thoughts?

  • @622judy
    @622judy Před 2 lety

    I so look forward to each Thursday for your videos. Trying my hand at surreal collages. Having difficulty with x-acto knife cutting and excerpting objects into the background. I find it very difficult to get them tucked in the slots. They bend or won't go in. I get one side in and it slides out while I try to tuck in another edge. Any suggestions?

    • @gustorres1852
      @gustorres1852 Před 2 lety

      You may have to make the slit larger.

    • @eastofhoney
      @eastofhoney  Před rokem

      I agree with Gus, making the slit larger might help. I also sometimes use my knife blade to tuck into the slit and twist it a bit to make the opening larger so the image has an easier time tucking in. Hope that makes sense!

    hi!! iIhave recently commandeered a bundle of Nat Geos from the 20s, 30s, and 40s, and i got them with the intent of collaging with them but I feel weirdly guilty about tearing up such an artifact?! NGs from 80s on i feel fine about but when do you draw the line between something to collage with and something thats worth keeping as is?? SO happy to see you have a youtube, ive loved your tiktoks for awhile!!!! :)

      @dalineo.9889 Před rokem

      Hey! :D
      I used to collect old books and newspapers and just put it on a bookshelf or something back then. But after a few year I felt like the books and magazines could be "honored" way more if I put it for good use (collage art), instead of letting it get older somewhere in my room and being looked through maybe once in a year. Also think this way: What will bring you more joy? Do you just love the book/magazine as a whole? (for me it's f. e. my nature study book from 1900) Or do you really get inspired by particular images? Then go for it!!
      Hope that helps a little! :)
