Experimenting with the copier.

Being creative where you can, when you can with what you have available. It's hard to think of anything that is as much as a comfort in tough places.

Better starts with dissatisfaction. A holy discontent. A decided refusal to never relinquish the possibility of what could be to what has been. To never accept the current state of things. It starts with a willing rejection. It starts with a conscientious objection.

“It is so much more comfortable to think that we know what it all means”, Anne Lamott says. But, sometimes the really magical, top-shelf, good shit, sometimes WE PROGRESS when we realize we don't know a goddamn thing. I came to collage to stop overthinking...

Super excited about Monday’s newsletter. I made a piece of art for a fellow writer's poem last week, and I “try” to write alittle bit about my creative process in making it and the way collage relates to my creative proces as a whole…I know…it’s kind of a lot…

Woman and Birds. Handmade collage of a Latin American woman engulfed by birds. The indigenous peoples of Latin America historically used bird motifs and the concept of flight as symbols of movement, relocation, and freedom. According to the Museo de Arte Precolombino in Peru, birds are essential animals in Andean culture because they are believed to fly between the celestial and earthly worlds.

These are only a few of the #books I did cover art for, using #collageArt, during 2014-2020. The real number is about 3x. Ah, these were the days.

That #collage art profession of mine has died out though. Partly because of the #enshittification of the industry in general, and because I had enough of it. I did all I could do with collage artistically, so I jumped into traditional-painted #illustration afterwards.I had zero success with illustration though in 4 yrs.

You ever have an artistic blind-spot? A creative blackout? You look at a piece of work and you know you had a thought. You know there was an idea. You know there’s an attempt at something here, you just don't know what the hell it is. Yeah, that's this. I suppose there's always tomorrow.

Duality. This portrait collage illustrates the intricate interplay of backgrounds, ethnicities, attitudes, and histories that shape everyone. The central figure in the collage showcases an array of conflicting features – varying skin tones, distinct eye colors, and mismatched clothing. These visual elements symbolize his diverse genealogy and the complex interplay of countless influences in his life.

5) I love these funky, colorful collages with touches of vintage imagery by A Soft Wrongness (asoftwrongness on Instagram and Big Cartel)

A collage of nature imagery like frogs, owls, mushrooms, and leaves, with the text "There is magic waiting to be unearthed (if I can summon the precise combination of unknowable words)"
A collage of 1980s cartoon imagery including Popples, Muppet Babies, and Rainbow Brite characters. Lots of it is pink and purple. The text reads, "Socialized to be sweet"

❤️ Artist: #13bis / #treizebis in City: #SaintSauveurEnPuisaye #Bourgogne France 🇫🇷 - Title: "COLETTE La Flamme" - #Streetart #Art #Mastoart #Pasteup #Artwork #collageArt #Woman #Lgbtq #Colette #150anniversaire ...see you 👋

Streetartwall. On a red street wall is pasted pasteup of a lady with deer antlers and flame. The pasteup is designed in black - white and the style is reminiscent of the twenties. The lady has brown short wavy hair, a black feather boa and stag antlers as a headdress.  She holds one arm bent upwards. A flame burns from her finger. She looks at us cheekily.  A wreath of flowers surrounds her from below.
Info: Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette first, two divorces later, she was simply called COLETTE.
Under this name, she evolved from a scandal-ridden bisexual vaudeville pin-up into the revered author and national heroine "notre grande Colette." She was the first woman to chair the misogynistic Académie Goncourt and the first Frenchwoman to receive a state funeral. But the whiff of frivolity prevented her advancement. 2023 marks the 150th anniversary of her birth and she will be duly celebrated.

I'm a late bloomer Boomer; I used #DreamAI by #Wombo. The prompt was "#Minions making #BoomerMemes". Style was #RetroFuturism. My input picture was part of my #Asemic #CollageArt - a #AsemicChristmasCard. Did some #DigitalArt modification afterwards. 😄 #Art #GenArt

The composition makes use of fine needle corrugated effect.  The outer portion has a series of polka-dot circles in off colours. The Interior has distorted versions of Minion characters, a clock with four arms. Distorted mesh & text spread across the background. Two impressionistic figures are observing the scene.

Heya, I'm Lily!

I work with #aiart using #midjourney. Started around v2 and now that v4 had hit it's only gotten better.

I also make #darkambient and #soundscape music using #Sunvox and #Audacity. Haven't worked on anything in a few months. Maybe that'll change!

#collageart is another medium I quite enjoy making. My PFP is a piece I made earlier this year and I love her.

I also dabble in #witchcraft.
