A landscape, abstract collage in a small booklet. Blue ink splotches cover much of the background. They are several circles of varying sizes punched from different colors and types of paper. Some darker blue and purple tissue paper is collaged over the top. The right side has the found text haiku collage (text in toot).

A landscape abstract collage. The left side gives the impression of a mountain with the sun overhead made with different colors and shapes of paper taken from different books and dyed with ink. The right side has a blue ink splotch a circle cut from sheet music with blue ink at the edges, smaller circles cut from security envelopes, and a scrap of torn paper with letters in it. The found text haiku collage (text in post) is on top of these elements.

I’ll start posting the series tomorrow, but here’s a sneak peek at the #Apple product documentation I turned into a book of #FoundText #haiku for a #collage challenge created by Canadian artist sarah.snip.snip who organizes the #MiniCollageCollective. You could prepare the backgrounds, but had to create 12 haiku in 12 hours!

My pale hand holding a booklet of abstract collage. The pages are wavy from ink and glue on the very thin paper. A white on black gridded glass surface and recycled yogurt cups are in the background. There is a haiku of found text just below my hand on the glass.My hand holding product documentation from Apple. This is the type of booklet I covered with collage and found text haiku. The haiku booklet is in the background. I have placed a haiku on top of it, but it isn’t glued down yet. A pink clip is holding the haiku booklet closed.

Elizabeth in Canada, 1957

A new collage I created for a #SpecialAgentCollageCollective mission. This mission is called Philatelic: Macroscale. Mission success is a collage that’s 7” or 18cm at its longest side and that begins with a postage stamp.

We did microscale earlier; collage on postage stamps!

A purple ruler sits too the left of a mixed-media collage that is 7 inches long. The background of the collage is created with alternating stripes of paper. A landscape photograph of a mountainous coastline, cut into strips, and strips from paper due with blue and purple ink. 

Over the striped background in a yellow “sun” in the upper left corner. The sun is made of wallpaper and mounted on cardboard, so it has some depth.

A piece of vintage advertising for “Canadian Adventures” depicts people golfing on a green before a large lodge. A woman in a yellow dress is in the foreground, holding a golf club that extends off the advertising piece and onto the striped background. 

A red, Royal Mail postage stamp with a portrait of Queen Elizabeth has been added over the head of the woman in the yellow dress.
