You're welcome, Lynn. As I get older, I am realizing more and more that play is essential to the quality of my life. 🥰

I'm genuinely blown away-excellent work!

Thank you, Cindy! My son watched the video and said the same thing 😂🥰

Just thank you ❤ i have always felt that my art was my safe, well lighted space. i am so glad to see you encouraging others to have personal art. My tip for sticky fingers is a sponge in a bowl sitting on a studio towel so when my fingers or the tiny fingers of my great niece get sticky we have a quick fix to sticky... i am not a big fan of sticky lol. Have a lovely day and ty again. ❤

GENIUS!!! What a great tip, Cindy - I'm going to have to start doing that (and sharing it)! It makes me so happy to know that you create art with your great niece - what a treasure. Thank you so much for being here. 🥰

looks like a cute cat to me 😍😍😍

Beki, another viewer saw a cat too, and I didn't see it until it was mentioned. You're right - is ia absolutely a cat. It's so nice to see you here again 🥰

Jackie, this was so much fun to get a peek at your "weird" box, and see some of the wonderful stuff you've made when your "urge to create" hits you! In my opinion, many of the pieces were frame ready art (like the 5 minute collage you made) and don't belong shoved down in a box! I am going to commit to finding the time to respond to my "urge to create" instead of scratching that itch by buying more art supplies! I have done way too much retail therapy and not enough art therapy the past few years, and now my studio is overflowing! xoxoxoxo

My heart goes pitter patter when I hear about studios overflowing with supplies 😂. I am guilty of over-buying supplies as well. Last year my husband was working in Philadelphia, and on a visit there I went into a Dick Blick store. Big mistake. BIG. I ended up buying a carry on bag for my trip home. You know I could have bought all of it from DB online, but the aisles are so seductive! Thank you for your kind words about my box of weird. 🥰

Oh Deanna, how I know the temptation of buying art supplies instead of shopping in my own stash and just letting go and create. Thanks to Jackie, we got a very motivating model, right?! So nice of you, admitting this. Perhaps we can cope the challenge together 😂🥰.

@@brittahansen8688 Yes, it has been quite the challenge for me to stop buying buying buying art supplies!! I watch videos of such great artists creating wonderful works (like Jackie : ) and I write down every supply they use in their process (that I don't already own) and I order those supplies ASAP! It is so shameful, but once I get my &$%^ together and get into my studio for some real art making, I can literally use any medium I want to use, and I have the best supplies available in each medium. There should be NO EXCUSE for me, ever!!

@@PaintedPaperStudio OH Jackie, I don't know how you managed to ever get out of the Blick store!! They opened a new Jerry's Artarama here in Dallas last year, and I have really exercised great self-control in staying away from there, I've only been twice!! But I pass it every time I come home from my son's house, and it beckons me so loudly!!

Oh Jackie, how I loved this video! 🥳 Allowing yourself to create "weird" collages is such a liberating idea. And the time limit of 5 minutes shuts up the inner critic in such an effective and fabulous way, that I can see him crawling away on all his fours 🤣. I didn´t know today was World Collage Day. Thank you for sharing this news and this video. A big hug to you from happy Britta 🥰

And you are right about the 5-minute window - there's no time for logic to take over. Big hugs to you, too Britta, and I hope Bavaria is starting to warm up. 🥰

So many beautiful "weirdies" in your box, Jackie! The one at 1:36 is eye-candy and the next three pieces as well. They would look lovely as part of a gallery wall 😍. I love collaging and this video is such an awesome motivational video! I hope you will unbox more "weirdies" for us 🙂. Aloha & a great start to your week from Berlin ❤🧡💛💚💜

Yep, glue stick for me, too, on smaller pieces of paper. Can totally relate to that "eww" sensation of stickiness you can't get off your fingers. Especially when I was recently incorporating fabric glue on some ribbon, and I swear I was pulling dried glue shards off my hands for hours afterwards! Thanks for alerting us to World Collage Day! I'll be observing it later on with my art group❤

YES! The shards of dried glue is so icky. When I was little, I remember putting Elmer's glue on my hand, letting it dry and then trying to pull it off in one try. Back then I loved it, now...not so much. 🤢

Thank you, Lynn - they make me happy every time I look at them 🥰

Thanks for sharing your box of fun exploration. One of the pieces reminds me a bit of Bozo the Clown and I LOVED it. I have to remind myself that a few outstanding pieces of color or shape can impact the collage. What I mean by that is that the last bright piece of green-blue with the holes added balance to the piece. Elizabeth St. Hillaire has a video showing how to paint the back of monoprinted rice paper to eliminate white edges. I don't like to have sticky fingers, either. This was a lot of fun to watch and a great exercise to set myself free. Happy Mother's Day Jackie.
