four corners design: 07.2015
http://fourcornersdesign.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Better late than never. While looking for something in my office the other day.which I can't even remember what it was at this point. I came across a folder of collage materials. I will often collect materials for a piece and put them all together in a folder so that the ideas and theme stay intact. I prepped a canvas today to finish up this collage.minus the cow. You can see the completed piece at. August 15-16 at the Everett Marina.I hope you'll stop by. Amy of four corners design. Links to this post.

four corners design: Reconstruction
http://fourcornersdesign.blogspot.com/2015/05/reconstruction.html
I've been working on collages for summer art shows. And in keeping with my word(s) for the year, dig deep. I am doing just that. I've dug out a few past collages that somehow didn't work. And taking them apart.removing some elements, tearing apart others, cutting portions out. And then combining the elements back together, strengthening the composition, adding in new objects, layering on paint or transfers. A feather tied on with jute twine was the last serendipitous touch. Amy of four corners design.

four corners design: the slightest provocation
http://fourcornersdesign.blogspot.com/2015/07/the-slightest-provocation.html
It doesn't take much.as I was rummaging through a stack of papers and ephemera looking for pieces to include in a giant collage I am working on, I spied it.an old library check-out card. My mind started spinning.putting the card aside, I kept it out of the pile so I could return to it. And spin the tale that spoke to me. Creating new pieces for my next summer show,. At the Everett Marina, August 15 and 16. Amy of four corners design. I love how your creative mind works - such a great collage! I love comi...

four corners design: Bit by bit
http://fourcornersdesign.blogspot.com/2015/06/bit-by-bit.html
In May, I had the privilege to be one of the demonstrating artists for the groups of schoolchildren who came to see the Sustainable Art exhibit at the. The process began with a stack of leftover painted wood scraps.I used these as my foundation. I wasn't quite sure what would spur me to create.so I brought a suitcase full of materials and papers. Which would also allow the kids to see that just about anything can be used for art. Bit by bit, each collage unfolded. But still something else was needed.
