A workbook for personal and artistic growth, Collage for the Soul will take readers on an interactive journey that will inspire their own creative pursuits. With a focus on artistic process using a variety of techniques, each project not only provides step-by-step instructions but also encourages personal exploration. The process of making collage transforms the creator just as it recycles and reimagines the found materials used in its creation. Authors Grasdal and Harrison discuss the ideas and themes behind self-expression and creativity, highlighting how we can explore our relationships through art, the ways to see and present nature, and what goes into the making of a visual memoir. They also provide the reader with information on symbols and their meanings -- gleaned from many cultures, as well as from art, history, literature, science, and nature. Collage for the Soul presents exercises designed to stimulate ideas and overcome creative blocks. You'll also find comprehensive information about using a variety of collage formats, such as encaustic, found and handmade papers, fabrics, assemblage, and mixedmedia collage. <br> |
