KTB Collage

On stage, a female dancer in a pink dress at left looking forward and a male dancer in a short white toga at right looking towards the dancer. Between them are the glitter silhouettes of four female dancers.

Looking back, Juan heaved a sigh. Josephine missed the cue and was once again the LAST dancer to transmogrify into a glittery ephemeral being.

I love this combination of materials.

I appreciate the wow. This piece was rejected from the first juried art show I ever tried to enter. 🏅

😆 no, just the random mouths of models that happened to be the right size.

😕

😮 that sounds like an intense experience!

Surrealist dressmaker. There’s a background of red cloth edged with lace. A woman is holding a drill up over her head, as if to drill more holes in the lace.

What It’s Like to Grow Up With A.I.: The Winners of Our Multimedia Challenge

I don’t normally post anything but my collage art here. This contest collection is a must-read for creatives, parents, teachers, and generally thoughtful humans. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/26/l...

In the background, two cows stroll along the waterline of a beach. An arm in a black and white sleeve stretches up, its X-ray skeleton hand holding a black pencil. The partially obscured handwritten text on a yellow index card reads: Gayleen, Have you ever walked on a beach? I have and it is always full of ad- You are like - - wanting to learn, read and - - the world. Thank you fo- on the beach with me

XRAY

As usual, things got weird. Started with the xrayed hand, ended with a notecard I found tucked into a book that passed through my little free library.

A nonsensical collage. Lower right: dark orange textured circle on a light orange textured background with an illustration of a vintage bottle of Hazeline witch hazel tonic leaning across the scene. Upper left: a packed scene of waterfowl with feathers that match the orange tones. One top of that image is a circle in a blue-green that matches the witch hazel bottle. On top of the circle is a glass fills with ice.

Cold glass of WITCH hazel, anyone?

An illustration of the Titanic ship has three circles cut into the hull, from which are visible open, laughing mouths. Apart from some water at the bottom, the background is sparkly red. Def a party vibe.

Loose lips sink ships?

The background is Vury Sparkly. I cut up the cover of a 40th anniversary “Rolling Stone”.

I appreciate the way you set up the glass’s “reflection” in the water.

A forest scene with many thin trees into the distance. Germs an purple flowers in the undergrowth. A cutaway view below ground reveals rippled soil and the roots of four molar teeth that emerge from the ground. The teeth are identical but exhibit varying degrees of cavity development.

Against a gray background, the word RED, in a lighter tone that could be called pink, appears three times in an arc. A disembodied ear hovers top left. Bottom right are rows of cloned gray humanoids. Above them is an illustration of a gas light. The word “perspective” appears in tiny font above the light.

An American flag draws down from the left. From the right, what looks like soap suds on a dark background pours down. In the middle stands the cartoon ad man, Mr. Clean. The words “No More Mr. Nice” appear on either side of him.

Boy, could the United States use a thorough cleanup! Mr. Clean for President?

Collage of bits of paper to form an eye. The area surrounding the eye looks like stone tiles. Black eyelashes come off the page in 3-D. Threads depict blood vessels in the white of the eye. The iris is fragments of blue-purple.

Paper and thread on paper
10”x 8”
This piece is meant to represent the feeling of being surveilled by an unknown human. The bits of paper making up the iris were cut from an illustration of a spy agency logo. #analogcollage #handcut #collageart

The primary figure is a skeleton atop an oval made of a sheet of music. The background is strips of varying shades of skin-tone liquid makeup. Across the top is a series for four wooden windows from which peer dark portraits. At the bottom is a strip of paper with a quote: “If you cannot get rid of the family skeleton, you may as well make it dance.” -George Bernard Shaw

😆 this is great!

There are three rows of overlapping circles in cream, pink, and lavender. One pigeon sits in a circle in the top row, two pigeons in the middle row, and three pigeons in the third row.

The background of this piece was a school assignment from March 11, 1980, that I found folded and tucked into an old encyclopedia set I’m using as source material. The student got 💯

A man holds a pair of binoculars up to his eyes. Behind him, another man with cobbled-together hands and arms holds a pair of toilet paper rolls up to his eyes as is they were binoculars. In the background is a vague crowd of people at a concert. A speech bubble hovers: So he’s to blame!

Three yellow daffodils on a purple background slightly overhang the edges of a gold picture frame. Behind the frame is an out-of-focus field of mostly purple flowers. On the purple background is a clip of text that reads “Nature I loved,”. At the bottom of the image is another clip of text that reads “and next to Nature, Art. -Walter Savage Landor (1775-1864)”

Cartoon black and white boy and girl heads look gleefully at fruit slice candies, one of which is watermelon flavor.

WATERMELON

Sure does make a forkful of hay heavier.

I sense an attraction here …
