Collages by Carolyn
Here is one of my collages. Whenever I have a project that uses
paint or ink, I often have a little bit left over. Being thrifty,
I don't like to throw it away. I water down the dregs of paint
and brush them onto scrap paper. I've been doing this for years
and I have quite a collection of colored papers at my disposal.
This is a wonderful resource to have when I want to make a collage.
This piece was made of those scraps cut up and glued with a glue
stick. I laser copied it onto archival paper to make it permanent.

In early 1996 I was invited to participate in a show of artistamps
(faux postage - for more information on artistamps click here).
I produced four color collages. The papers I used were from various
sources and the finished pieces were laser copied for permanence.
Following are some detail views of three of those works.
