Wonderful idea and work
Thank you so much 😊
Thanks for posting! I used this a prompt for a collage today!
Excellent! Thanks for watching. ❤️
Thank you for this Blue & Green are my favorites too
Thanks for watching! 🎨
Tell me your favorite (or least favorite) tool for collage!
Thank you
Thanks for watching! ✂️❤️✂️
Watched the Replay - you really covered a lot of great supplies & tips.
I hope you found some helpful inspiration! ✂️✂️✂️
Apologies for the blurry stream! Thanks everyone who did watch. I've updated the description with links to all of my favorites and not-so-favorites. You get to decide for yourselves! Tell me your favorite art supplies in the comments!
Hoooooo un peigne pour réaliser des mèches sur les cheveux 😂😂
Exactly! Works so good with paint.
Would be cool if tge top could be put on other tunes and make a dimensional "sticker" to put on your collage
Hey Linda - anything is possible!
I hate the word “mark making”. Every artist on TH-cam uses the same cliche language. LINE ART is not markmaking. 3 year old mark the walls with crayons. How about getting your “creative juices” going? Or your “journey”. They all talk the same. Many do lovely art, if they would only not talk so much. It’s distracting.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I understand how certain terms can feel overused or frustrating, especially if you hear them often. For me, 'mark-making' has a personal significance-it’s a concept I embraced after discovering Rae Missigman and her book Play, Create, Explore. She describes herself as a 'maker of marks,' and it really resonated with me as a way to describe the foundational process of creating. Another artist friend of mine, an abstract painter, also sees mark-making as the beginning of every piece she creates. While the language may not work for everyone, it helps me convey the intentionality and joy behind those first creative gestures. I hope the art itself shines through, regardless of the terminology. Thanks again for watching and engaging!
I like your ideas and your energy, but do wish you would stop referring to books that many people find fascinating as “boring.” While I personally am not.interested in trigonometry, I do find French/English dictionaries to be interesting and quite useful. I agree that old textbooks are good for making collage fodder, but just not that other people’s interests are “boring.”
Thanks for your critique! My goal in this exercise is to show how text-heavy books, which may not initially be visually dynamic, can become striking collage fodder with added marks. I personally love text-based books, especially ones with charts, graphs, and lists, as they have a natural graphic appeal. However, for collage artists who gravitate toward vibrant colors, patterns, and imagery, these books might seem 'plain.' This exercise transforms that simplicity into something visually stunning by enhancing the existing design. The results wouldn’t stand out as much if the original pages were already colorful or intricate.
👏🏽👏🏽
Fabulous mark making. Thank you so much.
Thanks so much for watching! ✂️❤️✂️
Which marks are your favorite? Do you have a favorite unconventional markmaking tool?
Marvelous idea. Easy to store the papers!
Easy to store, easy to find, and easy to just grab the whole book of interesting fodder!
OHMYGOSH the root comb?!!! That’s fantastic!!
I’m so pleased with the lines that this tool makes!
@ well I immediately went online and bought a pack 🤭
Couldn’t resist? It’s a really fun tool! 😜
What is that last tool you used and how can I get it. It was something about dying hair?
It’s a root comb, for applying hair color! You might find them at a beauty supply store. I got mine on Amazon. www.amazon.com/dp/B09BZL77SM/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_6K14BFTT35R6PE71BAQN?linkCode=ml2&tag=collage-youtube-20
Super, i lots of idea...cool, the one for hair it s super😂😂😂❤❤❤
I love it too! 😂✂️❤️✂️
Did you collage your shirt, too?!
I commissioned a local artist to create my Collage-Lab lab coat. ✂️✂️✂️
Thank you for sharing, the Root bottle attachment cool idea.
I love the marks that it makes!
Great video. Thanks. You are the sweetest ever. (Any chance you can look into the camera so it feels that you are connecting directly with your followers?). Much love to you ❤
I appreciate your feedback! ✂️❤️✂️ Working on it!
@CollageLab What a delightful challenge! Is it really fair to pick a favorite when I enjoyed them all? However, I have to admit the one rendered by Lela Goldstein sparked an immediate response from my laugh muscles!!!
They are all pretty fun. Love Lela’s as well!
Mute volume and turn on closed captioning for those with misophonia. I could not get through even 2 seconds of the sounds of the Sharpie against paper.
Thanks for watching.
Bonne idée
Thanks! I enjoyed finding the pen in an old catalog.
Simplissime
Yes. Thanks for watching!
J'aime beaucoup tes petits Shorts. Quand le n°5? Bye
Thanks! I’ve gotten a bit behind. Hope to catch up today!
Mon collage favori ? TOUS ils sont très réussis. Bravo aux artistes
They are all pretty terrific. Thanks for watching!
Which collage is your favorite?
❤
Thanks. This wasn’t my favorite prompt! 🐿️
So many favorite collage lab moments I can't pick just one--you are amazing Kelly! And the woven heart behind you is beautiful!
I'm so glad you enjoyed the year in review! ✂️❤️✂️ The heart is collage scraps and gouache - no weaving.
So glad I found you through Treasure Trovember... !! I'm hoping my 2025 will be my year of Collage!! Looking forward to all your have planned in the membership Thanks Kelly.
Welcome aboard! Im so excited to have you in the membership, Jo. Happy 2025!
Tell me what you'd like to see from Collage-Lab in 2025.
What fun!! Would never have thought to try it ❤❤
I love the surprise of those burnt edges!
Merry Christmas, Kelly! Love the poem. 😊. Kelly, I d like to suggest that you make your name more prominent. My hearing is not what it used to be and I don’t seem to catch your name at the beginning intro. Obviously I searched because here we are. So maybe you could add something to Collage Lab…………… Kelly at Collage Lab or maybe better Collage Lab with Kelly. I’m probably not the only one who has hearing issues but most of us can still read (I hope). Happy New Year, Kelly.
Thank you for the suggestion and Merry Christmas/Happy New Year to you too! 🎄✂️
The very same to you. I think this is my favorite!! Jacki
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. ✂️❤️🎉
