I’ve been thinking about ways to use 2-D art in my collage that involves neither stealing others’ art nor drawing. Because, let’s face it. I’ve been doing strictly 3-D art for so long that my drawing skills ain’t what they used to be.
I have a scanner and a garden.
I also have Microsoft Photo editor.
This is what I made.

I also face the issue of finding my own collage material. These are really sweet. The only problem I have with the computer imaging is the lack of texture. Printing on several different stocks is not always cheap, possible.
Recently I tried a gelatin monoprint for texture pieces… they were so much work!

One thing you can try is to paste the image over a highly textured paper, such as wallpaper. If you use acrylic medium and really rub it down, sometimes the background texture will show through.
