I originally started a blog that combined teaching elementary art and my own personal artwork, but I decided to separate the two out. My other blog is called Art is Basic. This is some artwork I made 4 years ago for my nieces.
What to do with all those family photos? Want to make a special gift for a holiday or occasion? These family photo collages are so fun to make. Using scrapbook paper, ribbons, photos and other bits and pieces of ephemera, make a montage incorporating a family photo or two. Add paint on top to tie the whole piece together.

I was inspired by and used techniques from Corey Moortgart's book. I have purchased 100's of art books over the years and I end up reselling a whole lot of them. This is one I've hung on to and enjoyed over again.
