10-Day Collage Challenge #1

I'm participating in a 10-Day Collage Challenge. Here's my first. It's made of junk mail that I found on my counter. I've always been intrigued by the many lovely patterns on the inside of envelopes. I'm featuring two of them in this piece. I love words and text and thought these would be interesting in this piece...and I WANT that shirt that I found in a Kohl's ad!

Thanks Lynn for the challenge and the motivation to do some of these fun, spontaneous collages. Check out Lynn's web site for her collages and those by the other participants. Lynn is a master collage artist. I met her through my artist/writer friend, Sue. Sue shared Lynn's collage book a few years back (yes, Lynn gave her permission) and I have been a fan ever since. It's fun to be a part of a creative coalition. Stay tuned and check out the other art.

Yes, I know, I'm already one collage behind..maybe I'll do another one tonight. :) Cheers! Happy creating.

OK...so I did a quick second collage to catch up. I continued my theme of using junk mail and again, feature the inside of an envelope. It celebrates our individuality and the rise to be whatever we can be in spite of the pigeon-holes we find ourselves in.
