A few more low-pressure, evening collages using leftover scraps. These were created one per day this time. I don't overthink the process. This helps to satisfy the create itch along with discovering different color combinations and designs. These collages were created in a smaller sketchbook.

3 Altered Sketchbooks: How to prep books & magazines



In this video, I’m sharing my process for altering books and magazines into sketchbooks. I’ll be prepping a children’s board book, a hardcover book, and a magazine. The magazine process is a bit more complex than the others, so please let me know in the comments if you need any clarification. I'll show how I work in each one in my next video. Thanks for watching!

Low Pressure Collages Part 2



More low-pressure, evening collages using leftover scraps. I don't overthink the process. This helps to satisfy the create itch along with discovering different color combinations and designs. These collages were created in a larger sketchbook than last time, so each one took no more than 10 minutes.
