You can use patterned paper, book pages, or you could paint your own paper just as I have done. And it dries a little more flexible because the paper is so porous. It doesn't give me a lot of height or weight. So most of this is painted onto just copy paper, so it's not too thick. Couple of tips I like to stick to thin paper. Most of these are gel printed that I created myself, but you don't have to use gel printed pages. I have an assortment of painted pages here. Class Supplies: So here are the supplies that we're going to use today for our abstract collage using papers focusing on an organic shapes. Once complete, you'll have a finished design, or at least another step in your collage process if you want to continue it further.
From here will transfer our design technique to a larger substrate. We'll also look at how the combined pieces direct your eye.
We'll take a moment to consider the placement of the shapes and the new shapes that they create when United. We'll start by choosing papers to collage, then creating preliminary designs on index cards. In order to help you make your own choices. I'll show you my process and explain why I made my composition choices. Hello, I'm Daniela Mellen and author and artist in today's class will tip toe into the world of abstract composition and work on uniting individual shapes together to make a whole collage. We'll take a closer look at the process of creating a collage composition using undefined shapes and the space surrounding those shapes. In today's class, abstract paper collage, organic shapes. The artist handles the paper, selecting the colors and textures, and then transforming bits of paper into a finished work. The process of creating a collage is enjoyable. Essentially, it's known as the cut and paste technique, which is part of its appeal. Class Intro: Paper collage is a technique where art is made by assembling different forms and shapes of paper. Focusing on rhythm, or the repetition of shape and color throughout the composition.1.Glazing different layers of the collage with colored glazes.Preparing paper – staining, crinkling, smudging, painting (with acrylics, watercolors, tempera), or drawing on top of the paper before cutting/tearing it.If you want cleaner looking edges, cut the paper with scissors. Layering torn paper on top of paper cut with scissors can make torn edges look all the more noticeable. Torn paper from magazines will often have white, feathered and uneven edges. You can construct interesting textures with the way you cut and tear paper. You can even cut out solid colors or textures and make your own pattern by creating some sort of visual repetition. When making an abstract collage, you can find a variety of patterns to cut and rearrange on the page. Magazines are a great source of color, texture, and patterns. By using basic shapes, you can focus more on line, color, and form. Think about using only square, rectangular, triangular, or circular shapes. Using simple shapes can help make a work of art look more abstract. This creates a distorted or abstract effect. You can cut these images into fragments and rearrange them before gluing the pieces down. When working with magazines and photographs, you’ll find lots of interesting and colorful images. The following are techniques that Coyle has used in her artwork (click on the square thumbnails to view a larger image of each technique): You can also create textures by treating the paper or by incorporating mixed media in your collages. Depending on what type of glue you use as you work, you can create different textures when peeling or attempting to peel off previous layers.īy working with paper, you can achieve a variety of effects by using different cutting and pasting techniques.
You can easily layer pieces of paper on top of one another, as well as peel off previous layers to let what’s underneath shine through. Collage is an incredibly flexible medium.
