How to make EASY collage paper! Create UNIQUE papers to use in your paintings and art journals.

I take you through my process of creating monochromatic collage paper that I can tear up and use in paintings and art journals! Lots of mixed media, paint, stencils, pastels, and intuitive mark making. It's also an opportunity to explore your own vocabulary of marks as an artist and try NEW things!

    Hi Lauren! I have just discovered your channel, liked and subscribed! I have recently started my own Art/Craft KZread channel and mixed media/collage is my thing! Making collage paper is one of my favourite things to do. Good tip on turning the paper so it doesn't become a painting! I love the colours you have used and the different textures you have created. I look forward to seeing more from you. :)

    Love the Crayola brush idea, because I have been using makeup brushes. They’re a bit too soft, though. Oh! and rotating the paper! Why haven’t I heard that before? Thanks!

    Thank you for a very encouraging video. I am going to give this a go. Never thought to do this on sketch paper! And the glue stick holds up, is that due to the light wetness of the paper?
