Try Ctrl and Z to delete, collage by iHanna. One of the reasons I love collage is because it always seem to be something hidden, beneath the surface. There are different layers of papers of course, but also layers of meaning and obscured imagery. There might be some hidden secrets. Sometimes the meaning is obvious, […]

365 Collages | Week 19 | Looking back & moving for
We just passed the “Summer Middle”, and with this post I’m sharing a few “leftovers” or let’s rather call them catch up collages from previous weeks. I’ve already shared week 17 (Being a Paper Squirrel) and week 18 (Ironic Midsummer Romance) this week so I guess the whole concept is confusing not only to me, […]
365 Collages | Week 18 | Ironic Midsummer Romance
Happy Midsummer from Sweden today! Fun but terrifying – collage by iHanna. Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it. Rumi Happy Midsummer, or Solstice, or simple the middle of summer – today, with 7 romantic looking collages… […]
365 Collages | Week 17 | Being a Paper Squirrel
I am definitely a Paper Squirrel, saving every little piece of paper I can. I squirrel away all the papers that I think have potential to be in a collage, some day. I think you have to be somewhat of a Paper Squirrel to be a collage artist. You need a good collection of different […]
365 Collages | Week 16 | English Garden Party
There are days when solitude is a heady wine that intoxicates you with freedom, others when it is a bitter tonic, and still others when it is a poison that makes you beat your head against the wall. Colette Tea for two – collage no 107 by iHanna. Welcome to my English Garden Party! Don’t […]
365 Collages | Week 14 | Patchwork Garden Collages
Hello and welcome to my beautiful Patchwork Garden, made out of paper and glue of course. Each patch is decorated to delight all the senses… Garden Patchwork 1, a collage by iHanna a.k.a. Hanna Andersson, Sweden. As per usual, I started out with not much of an idea, but then went to town with the […]
365 Collages | Week 11 | Bambi came to visit
In my last post I blamed work and good weather. What shall I blame this time? Time being an escape artist perhaps? Because it is true, it really is. But also folks, don’t arrange a big swap in the middle of a 365 Art Project that you’re already behind with… Just don’t. But since I […]
365 Collages | Week 10 | Roses for You
You have to care about your work but not about the result. You have to care about how good you are and how good you feel, but not about how good people think you are. Amy Poehler Roses for the Girls, a collage by iHanna. I did a collage exercise once where you used bits […]
365 Collages | Week 8 | Inspired by Easter Yellow
Even though Easter is very much over, I’m still wearing my new, Easter yellow hoodie and yellow skirt with orange flowers. It’s a color that I’ve been loving more and more over the past two years I think, and it is evident if not everywhere so at least in my wardrobe. And during Easter this […]
365 Collages | Week 7 | Snow in March
I am trying to focus on the slow movement forward, towards my goal of 365 somethings in 2018. A few collages at a time, being glued together, scanned to the computer, then named, numbered and shared on the blog. I’m not very good at focusing on the progress and change, but with a project like […]
365 Collages | Week 6 | Animal Friends
Still working to catch up to making 365 collages this year, still behind but that’s okay. I feel better now that I see some small progress, and no longer are at a stand-still. I rather move slowly than not at all, you know… My goal is to make seven finished square collages each week. So […]
365 Collages | Week 4 | Will I be able to catch up...
I started making collages again after a month of doing almost nothing. And I have to ask: Will I be able to catch up? It’s week 10 already, this equals 2 months and 4 days. We’re on day 63 of 2018, and I’m sharing collages number 22 to 28 today, that I made this weekend. […]
