Experimentation

2/11/09

Sometimes these daily collages may seem insignificant to a viewer, when in fact they are very significant to me. Maybe not because of their artistic value, but because they are experiments in techniques or new materials. The collage above is one of those experiments.

My Epson printer is horrible about printing on my usual assortment of papers for collaging. Most of the time it either jams or refuses to print at all. However, the mulberry paper in the collage above apparently is an exception. I fed it through as-is without a backing sheet, and it printed like a dream. Definitely a great thing to know for future collages!
