365 Collages | Week 43 | Monsters in the Closet

It’s week 43 of 52 weeks in 2018, and I’ve reached collage number 300 in my 365 Somethings. Today is day 299 of the year. After today there are 66 days remaining in this year, so that we (as happens most years) will land on the magic number 365 at the last day of the year. And what a ride it’s been so far, right?

Not to brag or anything, but that is SOOO AWSOME! I’m so cool, I’m a winner, I am… oh, sorry. Never mind that outburst. Let’s continue.

I’m sure you can tell I’ve been diving head first into my own painted papers this time. It’s a box that has been on the shelf for a while, but this week it came out and I it was super fun re-discovering these gems, some painted recently, others a couple of years ago!

Here are my collages for this week, I so hope you like them!

All Hallows Eve, no 294 by iHanna.

Raise Your Head, collage no 295 by iHanna.

Piece by Piece, collage no 296 by iHanna

Monsters in the Closet, collage no 297 by iHanna.

Abandoned Building, collage no 298 by iHanna.

Chaos without Theory, collage no 299 by iHanna.

Stargazing, collage no 300 by iHanna.

Three hundred collages, that is a lot of square artworks born in one year, by one artist. I’m impressed, by myself. It’s a nice feeling. I won’t brag more in this post, I’ll just carry on making collages…

Make something this week

If you too would like to get your creative juices flowing, it’s not too late to join the DIY Postcard Swap and start making your own collages (or paintings, drawings, illustrations, stitching). If you share the swap image in this post on social media (for example on instagram or your Facebook page) you will be in the draw of a paper kit from me. Just tag me so I know you’re entering. Pst: You do not have to be in the swap to take part in the collage paper lottery, just sayin!

Thanks for leaving me a comment below letting me know which of these you like most! I love to know you looked at each one again to find a favorite. When you try to define what it is about that composition that you like (or not like), I feel like I’m am getting so much feedback and love. Then I take a second look at my own work and (sometimes) see it with new eyes.

Thank you!
