So pleased to watch your process to collaging the papers, strips, circles, working in with the pens. I have lots of papers and have not felt free enough to rip and tear and try to make things. Would love to see more like this. Thank you!
Every year should start like this: with a beautiful piece of art created with your own hands ... fearless ... drifting & floating with colours & shapes you love ... and eventually ... BAM ... there is a lovely hand-made piece of happiness! I wish you all the best in 2024, Jackie! Have an abundance of wonderful creative moments! Hope your family - Archie included - is well! Aloha from Berlin ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
Love working with restrictions like you did here. It forces creativity right?!? Side note, I would have totally used that negative space from the confetti punch you used on you favorite paper! It kept callinge😅
Hi @johanssonstudio - The pencil I used is the black Woody Stabilo, and I have now listed it in the supplies - thank you for letting me know that it was not in there 🥰

Oh, FYI the wet strength tissue paper is available again on Amazon. It's listed "Carnival wet strength tissue... 480 sheets for $90. I bought that package right before I discovered (drats!) the exam table paper rolls, which work as well as the tissue and are so much less $$. IMO. I made some beautiful papers on that exam table paper last week!@@PaintedPaperStudio
And thank you Jackie, for all of the great tips you share! Murphy's oil soap is incredible in the studio, I had NO IDEA it would clean acrylics and Gelli plates so well!!@@PaintedPaperStudio
I've been using Murphy's for 35 years at least, on the hardwood floors in every home I've had since the mid 80's! I've just never used it for anything else! Such a fabulous studio and elsewhere tip! The 2nd great tiop from you was the Badger Hair Brush! I broke down and bought the biggest one available from da vinci, but I haven't used it yet...... So expensive I'm afraid to wreck it somehow! Do you have care and cleaning tips for it?@@PaintedPaperStudio
I would never tell you where to stop as a viewer. Heart is so subjective and so personal. Just because I would’ve done more or less doesn’t matter. It’s your peace that you are creating. It is your art. You get the same as when it is finished and I respect that. Even if I would’ve done some thing else. And if I would’ve done some thing else, then I need to get my fanny in gear and create! That is my two cents worth from Tennessee.
Beautiful Jackie! It's wonderful to see how you use all of the delicious papers you create. Best wishes for the New Year. Thank you for sharing your talent and creations. ♥♥♥
So glad you recommended re-watching this! I needed to do so. Time limits, medium limits. I need this so I don't overthink. Glad you framed this piece. I see so much hope in it. Thank you. Again. Always
Wow, 25 minutes!!!!??? So fabulous! I find I like my results better when I have limited time, too, due to my tendency to overwork and overthink. You've inspired me to do this challenge.
What a lovely colourful piece to bring in the New Year. I can see why that one piece was your favourite-absolutely gorgeous. Well done for being able to push past the need to hold those pieces so preciously. I am struggling creatively in all areas this year so far. But I have enjoyed all of your work and will continue to watch and hope to gain some more inspiration as I definitely vibe well with your approach and work.
It's so nice to see you again, Happy. It stinks to be stuck in the creativity doldrums, but trust yourself - your creativity will come back to you when your body is ready for it. Meanwhile, I'll be here with some fun and (maybe) crazy ideas. 🥰
Happy 2024 to you too, dear Jackie 🥰 How very nice of you to provide the community with such an inspiring video before going on holiday 😘. I wish you all the best and am looking forward to see you back in your studio, doing all those nice with paper and colour and your beautiful smile 😍. XO Britta
Thank you, Britta, and happy New Year to you! I am back, but I brought bacck a travel cold, so it may be a day or two until I get back in the studio. 🤗
Happy new year lovely Jackie 🤗💗🤗 Thank you for sharing this fabulous creation. It looks beautiful and vibrant.😍 I’ve been trying to get hold of the larger 2” hole punches here in the UK but can’t seem to find anyone stocking them, they seem to be based across the pond in your home country. They create mini pieces of art from the larger piece, adding shape and dimension, love them so will keep searching. It was also a struggle getting wet strength tissue but managed it just before it started running out. But newspaper print is also a mystery to find here too! On with the search. Look forward to seeing your next instalment and hope you had a wonderful holiday. Hugs of creative fun and thanks 🙏🏻 🤗🙏🏻
Andrea, thank you very much for watching and sharing this information. I'm so glad you got your hands on some of the wet strength tissue paper - my fingers are crossed everyday that it will be available soon. I just jumped on the Amazon UK site and found the same bulk newsprint that I use, but it's called "newspaper offcuts," or packing paper there. The 2" circle punch might be a little tricky to find in stores, but I found some on Amazon too (there are a couple of different companies that make them EK Tools and Craftelier). I hope that helps. I hope you have the very best year in your creativity! 🥰
Such a pleasure to watch you create this piece. I love your relaxed attitude to collage. …you make it look very simple! We all have our own ideas and preferences but there are no rights or wrongs in art. As long as the artist is happy with the result, that’s all that matters in my opinion. Great colours in this piece and all the more satisfying to know you created all of the papers. I’m new to your channel and look forward to seeing more. Thanks!
Hi Gina! I am so happy you found your way here and I appreciate your lovely words. I agree 100% there's no right or wrong in art - it's just too personal. If you watch any of my other videos you'll quickly see that I am focused making art that feels good to me, alone and when other people enjoy what I create, well that's the icing on the cake. 🥰
Lovely collage, Jackie! And I have to agree that that paper that was your favourite from last year is gorgeous. What nice colours! A nice quick and dirty art piece that turned out fabulous. I like the idea of giving yourself a time to just complete a piece in! Happy New Year.
Hi Jackie Loved the video, so many ideas, tice paper and the hole punch were new to me so thank you 👍 Do you varnish your pieces prior to framing at all, or just frame as they are? Thanks Sarah
Hi Sarah! Sometimes I varnish, sometimes I don't. If the piece is for me I base it (primarily) on where the piece is going to live. If I know I'm going to put it near a sunny window, or in my kitchen/bath, then I varnish. If it's going into a hallway with no sunlight I usually don't. If it's a piece I'm selling, I will always varnish it. To be honest, I should varnish finished pieces all the time, but sometimes I'm lazy. I hope that helps. 🥰
@@debbieyoung9301, I'm going to do my level best to encourage you to give it a whirl. There's something that happens when you only have 5-minutes left. Your intuition takes over, and you finish strong - at least that's my story 😂😍
Thank you, Dancing Queen (I love that handle)! I've done some pop-up sales in the past, however I haven't been as focused on selling my work as I have been making these video. At some point I'm going to have to get serious about or I'll need to buy a new house to store it all 😂. Thank you so much for being here! 🥰
This is such a great question! I rarely frame my art. If I'm going to display it, I usually create on a deep panel. Having said that, when I do frame collage, I follow this process: I let it cure for a couple of months first, then I double mat it prior to adding the frame. This keeps the art from touching/adhering to the glass. Thank you so much for asking such a great question, Sylvie! 🥰
The video itself was great. Really enjoyed watching you creating. However the stop start music was very jarring and totally unnecessary. It can create an overwhelm for many people.
I know - it's very jarring. When I edited it it was at the lowest volume possible -30 db. But when I uploaded it, TH-cam adjusted the volume, and it's awful. Most of my videos have no music at all because it can be challenging for many people (myself included) to hear properly over it. But I put it in this time to fill up the space - lesson learned, and I apologize. Having said that, thank you very much for watching, and for letting me know your concerns. 🥰
@@PaintedPaperStudio Love your videos, love ur art and I appreciate ur time & expertise. That said, i agree about the music. I have had to unsubscribe from other channels b/c I find it so distracting and unnecessary. I like the blank time to digest and absorb what u r teaching. Thank you for listening and HNY
Thank you for your kind words and for letting me know your thoughts, Mary. It was something I tried, it didn't work out, and it's not something I intend to include in the future. I do hope I haven't lost you because of it. 💜@@maryrude8796
So pleased to watch your process to collaging the papers, strips, circles, working in with the pens. I have lots of papers and have not felt free enough to rip and tear and try to make things. Would love to see more like this. Thank you!
Thank you, Leslie - I think I will be doing another "First Collage of the Year" video in January - stay tuned. 🥰

Hope your family - Archie included - is well!
Aloha from Berlin ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
Beautifully said, Queen! Let's drift and float creatively the whole year. 🥰
Love it/ Kept thinking about it being an under water piece, wanted to stick a fish, mermaid, sponge bob (haha) in it.
Love working with restrictions like you did here. It forces creativity right?!? Side note, I would have totally used that negative space from the confetti punch you used on you favorite paper! It kept callinge😅

Thank you very much, Clover 💜
Yes! I know what you mean about being too precious about things…I need to work on that as well! Lovely piece! Thanks for sharing!!
Me too
Thank you, Dianne - and let's both work on being less precious 🥰
Fabulous piece of art, Jackie!! My favorite color palette, hands down! It's so fun to watch you creating!
Thank you, Deanna - It's one of my favorite color palettes too! 🥰

Would love to learn more about your studio journal. Brilliant idea ❤
Thanks Donna! I am going to talk about it more in an upcoming video - stay tuned 🥰
So glad you recommended re-watching this! I needed to do so. Time limits, medium limits. I need this so I don't overthink. Glad you framed this piece. I see so much hope in it. Thank you. Again. Always
Thank you very much, Jennifer - I love that you see "hope" in it. 🥰
Wow, 25 minutes!!!!??? So fabulous! I find I like my results better when I have limited time, too, due to my tendency to overwork and overthink. You've inspired me to do this challenge.
Wonderful! I hope you have a great time doing it. 🥰
So fun. I loved the yellow edge that got discarded 😮in the framing but the cut worked beautifully. 😊Those final editing decisions are brutal.
It's so true, AL - the final decisions are the hardest. Thank you very much for watching! 🥰
How beautiful this is! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you, Ellen 💜

It IS very beautiful.
Thank you very much, Skullington 💜
Great 👍...u may enjoy watching Gaynor Pattle...
Thank you, TakeTime! I truly enjoy Gaynor's videos - she purely delightful. 🥰
Lovely piece, you did brilliantly in the little time you had to create this 😊
Thank you, Debbie! If I'm being honest with myself - I secretly love the time restriction. Do you ever try it? 🥰
No, I couldn't do that, it takes me ages deciding what pieces to use and where to place them, I wish I could, maybe in time 😊
