What story will your art express?

There's a dialogue waiting to happen on your worktable. The Art of Expressive Collage will teach you to listen to what paper and glue, ink and paint have to tell you.

You'll discover new ways to think about arranging these bits in your work as you express yourself with lines, smudges and translucent layers.

  • An understanding of the elements of design and composition
  • Tips for making unique marks, adding photos, creating textures and much more
