Creating 6 collages from leftover scraps #3



While cleaning up my art studio, I noticed that the container of leftover scraps was getting full. It's time to bring out a small (5-inch square) art journal and grab a few scraps then start creating collages. It's a fun exercise to try different color combinations and compositions. Thanks for watching!
