Absolutely fantastic! Let me say that I've scoured youtube for anyone who can explain the process of constructing collage in a concise manner. You, my dearest Cat have a natural ability to teach. Thank you so very much for this.❤❤❤
Wow, thank you for such clear directions. I have a pile of papers ready for collage and feel more confident in deciding which papers and how to use them. You made my day. Thank you!
What a kind thing to say. You might also enjoy my free 5-day collage class which takes you through the entire process. Link to sign up is under my video.
Catherine, this is the most comprehensive video I have ever watched on color, placement and composition. Thank you for explaining the steps in great detail. Two days ago I joined your free 5-day collage kickstart workshop. I am going to create papers today. I can’t wait to see what I come up with. Thanks for the inspiration and sharing your gift.
I'm thrilled that you found this demo so useful! And I'm even more thrilled that you are now taking Collage Kickstart with me! Enjoy the messy collage paper making process over the next few days, and transforming them all into collages at the end.
So glad that this made sense to you. I'm about to release another video like this with 7 types of papers, very different than this one. Should be out in 2 weeks.
Soooo happy I have found your channel. This is the best video I have seen on explaining how to construct a collage. Thanks a bunch. From my little corner of the world - Vancouver, Canada.
I'm deeply touched by your feedback Pauline. Thank you taking the time to share such loving feedback. From my little corner of the world in North Carolina, USA!
I love your collage papers and your process. Since I draw à lot with ink, you helped me see how I can use my work and integrate it with the rest of my collage materials. Your enthusiasm and your explanations are so inspiring!. Thank you sooo much for sharing. Danielle the mixed media artist
You have a such beautiful way to teach and I love the sound of your voice ..... These collages are really amazing ❣️❣️❣️ love it ❤❤❤ thanks to sharing with us your artwork 🥰
I really enjoyed this video - I watch a lot of collage videos but for the most part, I think those artists are working intuitively and I can never figure out why they did what they did. But here, you have given us a set of rules about this group which made a lot of sense and I am going to use them in making my next collage. I think limiting the number of papers used will help as I can get quickly lost in the pile I have made. I will be checking all your other videos!
Thank you explaining as you create these collage papers. Your explanations really help me understand your creative process. After watching and listening to you I think I can do this. Subscribed and signed up for your free 5 day course
You are so very dear Emily. THANK YOU a million times over for your loving support of what I put out into the word. Grateful to be walking this path alongside you.
So glad that you enjoyed it! I actually teach how to create the circles and provide the templates for them in my upcoming collage master course that starts in January.
I am new to your channel having seen it for the first time today. This was delightful and I love the series! I will be back tracking on how you made your papers. Thank you!
Love your techniques in that you start with the Tuesday video and then complete collages each week. I’m not sure if I understood a part of what you said at the beginning of video when you were deciding on which new collage pieces to use. You picked out your faves and then put aside the ones you were not crazy about. Did you say you then throw those away or do you put aside and use later? I’m asking bc I wonder if you ever take the ones you are not so crazy about and add more to them so you like them more? Hope thus makes sense. It would be neat to see how you make them better.
Very good question, and I didn't explain this! I hang onto most of my "not favorite" papers, with the intention of adding layers to them over time, eventually making them into a favorite. Every now and then, I'll toss a paper just because i have so many and don't need to turn every dud paper into something great. For Tune In Tues demos, I'm choosing to show papers that I think could look good together, but I make so many for each demo, that many go in the dud pile until I get my rhythm and learn to make the paper in the way that I'll love it. Does that answer your question?
Hi Cat! I've purchased Collage Joy and Collage Keepsake and I can't find the tutorial on alcohol drop papers. Do you remember where I can find it? Thanks a bunch. Love your courses!
I truly appreciate you supporting my work in such a tangible way. Go to the bottom of this demo, under show more, and I have links to that paper and all the others used in this demo. Enjoy!
Your videos are always helpful. I appreciate the indexing. Two ways they could be even more helpful: I have to increase the volume for every one of your videos (more for the intro on this one than the exposition). When I clicked to watch, I thought this would be about five different substrates, not five different kinds of prints. Titles and thumbnails have a lot of influence over what I chose to watch (and I doubt I am unique in this).
I very much appreciate the specific feedback on how I could make my videos more effective. I try to make the thumbnail very clear as to what will be included in the video, and will focus on being even clearer!
Your spots created with hole punch are fab! Well everything is fab of course. But how do you find hole punches which give different size circles? Thank you 🙏

YOU have just made my day, week, heck my month! Thank you for the very loving feedback. I'm still smiling....

Please would you show these again Cat when you have put them on the cradle boards? I love all of them. Thank you for sharing ❤
Thanks for letting me know that this would interest you. Once I have enough collages created with Tune In Tues papers, I will just that.

Thank you so much for the kind words!
Lots of variety and methods for creating. Loved it!
Thanks so much 😊
Cat, thank you for the how and why of collage placement. Simple and lovely.
So glad that this made sense to you. I'm about to release another video like this with 7 types of papers, very different than this one. Should be out in 2 weeks.
I enjoyed watching. I love doing collage. I don’t do it enough. So motivational. Thank you.
So glad that you found this demo motivational! Now go make a collage😉

Oh, wow. This has given me a whole new perspective on how to create collages! Thanks so much 😊
I'm so glad! Thank you for watching! 😊💕
Love your results and demo methods. I like how you narrow down choices at the outset to make things simpler. It's very effective. Kudos to you.

How did you make the big circles? This is awesome
I actually provide a template for all sizes of circles during both my Collage Joy and Collage Keepsake online classes.

What was the board you mentioned that you mounted the final series on?
I mount them on wooden cradled boards.
❤ how did you make the glue glitter paper? ❤ that additional element
That paper was a paint skin that I added a textured glitter paint to. I've got a TH-cam video on how to create skins 10 different ways.
@@catrains.artist wow thank you very much 😊

How do you keep your substrate from curling?
I paint a coat of gesso on both sides, and let it dry, before adding collage elements.
@@catrains.artist Thank you, I will try that.
I ❤You😊😊😊😊😊
💕😊
Your spots created with hole punch are fab! Well everything is fab of course. But how do you find hole punches which give different size circles? Thank you 🙏
So glad you liked them! Type in hole punches on Amazon and you'll find a selection of them. Enjoy!
@@catrains.artist, thanks a lot! Added to cart 😄
@@AllisonL1000 Yeah! Love these!
