Collage Grids

Posted on January 14, 2019 | 19 Comments

There is something wonderful about creating collage in grids…

Maybe it is like a box of chocolates…

Knowing that each space is filled with something delicious!

Or maybe it is finding that one unexpected surprise!

Or perhaps, it is a uniform and consistent result:

That brings you a feeling of comfort…

What collage grid do you like?  How does it make you feel?

I hope you share it with me!

Cheers! 🙂

    I know how much work these are. I could only manage one. Think the black and white with the one red piece is my favourite.

    Jill, your grid art is so cool. I like the added red in the BW version.

    I like the black and white one the most. With that one I really notice the shapes and they are very pleasing to look at.

    I love these Jill! Full of inspiration! They may actually get me back into collage and grids…I’ve been looking for a way to begin. (K)

      Hi Kerfe, I thought you might enjoy them! 😃 They are very addicting to make… I hope they inspire you. The last one I used stitching for the center of the eye. I found each one taught me something different. The first one I added layers with transparent papers onto solid paper and it really made them sing. The BW one, I used a copy of a doodle and cut it up, it made to see it in a different way and add a touch of red. The last one was a study of repetition with one shape, an eye. I used vintage papers and some were from a sewing book. I like the muted colors over a bright background.
      I look forward to seeing what you create! 🎨👍

    They are all awesome and each have something special, but I am drawn to the first one. It has me searching for weird birds! 🙂

    What a great idea. Hopefully I can get my daughter to try this with me.
