Very useful information. Choosing a colour palette- working small- lots on the go- taking a photo before sticking- all good. The stuff about actual composition was also very helpful. Thankyou. This is just the sort of work I have been doing for about 18 months -but in a haphazard way-so armed with this useful stuff- onwards and upwards( with the occasional forays sideways and backwards)
Hi I’m so glad you found it useful. I’m not sure if you are aware but I have a new online collage course which goes into my approaches in much more detail and in a variety of ways - you can find out more here: lizackerley.podia.com/your-collage-compositions
You are very welcome. I’m glad the video is helpful- I’m currently developing a new online course called Your Collage compositions. More info here: lizackerley.podia.com/your-collage-compositions
Thank you, Liz, for posting your process. This information was so helpful and just what I needed to see. I have been working on small collages over the past few months, and recently, I found that I was overthinking, and my work was looking tight. Your suggestion to work in a series resonated with me, and I look forward to implementing this practice soon. I find your work refreshing and inspiring. Thanks again, and best wishes to you.
Hi, many thanks for your message. I am so glad that the video was helpful. I am currently working on a new collage course which will be online. I know exactly what you mean and it happens to all of us. Another thing you can do is limit your time on a specific piece. Here's the link to the course information fyi: lizackerley.podia.com/your-collage-compositions. It isn't released yet but when it is, I will notify all those signed up to the waitlist with an introductory offer.
Thanks Kate. Glad you enjoyed the video. I’m currently developing an online course: Your collage compositions that I’ll be releasing around end May. If you are interested You can sign up to the waitlist here: lizackerley.podia.com/your-collage-compositions
Hi Liz. You suddenly appeared on my screen for the first time yesterday and I'm quite grateful. Have definitely subscribed. Love your autumn journal. I chose to view this video because I love making collages. You've presented some splendid insights here. Thank you so very much.
Hello Linda thank you so much for your comments and for subscribing to my channel. I find the concertina sketchbooks a really useful way of helping to tell the story of the subject. I love collage too and use it for all aspects of my art practice. In fact I’m currently developing an online course focused on collage. I’m glad the insights are helpful. I think collage has a lot to teach us and doing this 100 day project with it as a focus was really helpful. As with many things, the more we do, the more we learn and understand. I’m so glad you are finding my videos helpful.
Thanks Gilli I’ve really been enjoying creating these small collages. I have 20 more to do but because of everything else going on I’ve not wanted to rush at them. I’m planning to get on with them soon. Then I’ll share an overview . Thanks as ever for your support. Much appreciated x
HUgely enjoyed this video - you have such a great way of explaining what you do and why, what worked and what didn't. Thank you very much for such an interesting video.
Honestly Liz, if ever you stop travelling you are in Masters Degree way of teaching that stands out for me from this exciting demonstration. I can sense your own growing excitement. Very useful way with a series and soring a n idea of a shape keros coming through, like my favourite shapes of bramble too. Thank you.
Thank you so much for sharing this process. I found it both instructional and inspiring. I keep a sketchbook as a hobby and have been a bit stuck with a current project. I’m going to revisit it using this process to see what happens. Again, thank you for taking the time to make and share these videos.
Hi Jane I am so glad that you enjoy the videos and find them helpful. I think we all get stuck and revisiting with a fresh angle or approach can really help. You are very welcome and thank you for your message.
WOW! This is such a compact and value rich tutorial about creative composition. I am going to watch this video several times to take notes. Lots of wisdom pearls here! Hugs... 🤗💕
Great seeing these as separate collections, I find that a really helpful way to think about organising a large number of investigations. I plan to make papers and develop some collages on holiday so this has been great to watch, thank you.
Thanks Rachel and I’m glad it was useful. Yes agree about separate groups - May have been hard to do 100 without that. Hope to finish the remainder although lots going on at moment making it more tricky. Hope you have a wonderful holiday.
