About this title

Synopsis

You've been a collage-maker ever since you were a kid, turning pictures from magazines into personal statements about life. It's much more fun to create adult illusions and moods-still using the collage basics of paper, string, wire, and glue. A dozen simple projects show you the techniques for making your own versions of Snow on the Mountain, The Falls at Yosemite, The Four Seasons, In the Canyon, Tribal Music, and other magic landscapes.

Reviews

This is an excellent resource for anyone wanting an introduction or to learn more about the art of paper collage. Ackerman, an artist for more than 20 years, begins with the basics: the different types of paper, tools, and adhesives that are needed; materials that embellish paper; and how to decorate plain paper for use in a collage. The author also explains the basic techniques of making collages and gives many hints for materials that are more difficult to work with and common problems found in paper collage. More than 15 projects are offered, and photographs of Ackerman's many collages will inspire ideas. The projects are divided between landscapes and abstract images that use many different types of paper, materials, and colors. The step-by-step illustrations, the author's clear and easy-to-follow instructions, and the numerous project ideas offered make this an excellent resource. Michelle Kaske

Store Description

With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
