Scrapiteria Did Not Die...It Just Cut Out

2011-09-07T13:52:00.000-05:00

Collagists have come and gone through the Scrapiteria doors, but there is one who started with me in the beginning that I would like to acknowledge and that is Michael Leigh. Thank you Michael for all of your wondrous collages! I would have stopped this blog years ago if it had not been for you. You have contributed more collages than anyone else and your creativity and energy never cease to amaze me. You are a true inspiration.

Thanks again to all the artists who have contributed work for this site. I look forward to following your progress online. Take care everyone!

Love,
Angelica

This seems like a good opportunity to share a collaboration between myself and fellow Scrapiterian, Marty Gordon. You can clearly see the "end" theme here too! Thank you Marty for introducing me to this group. I am deeply saddened to see this blog come to an end. It has been a great example of what I consider the best of humanity: creating, sharing and loving each other in free expresssion. I predict quite a few of us will still be loitering on this site as long as it is still up. Seeing old artwork, reading comments, and reliving the experiences. Best wishes to all the artists here. It has been a fantastic ride. Keep those fingers sticky, and scissors chopping!

All the old faces together again for the last time! Sob sniffle!

There's always a beginning, a middle, AND and an end !

2011-09-04T13:26:00.000-05:00

There's always a beginning, a middle, AND an end...

.... and usually there's another beginning. Good luck Angelica, and fellow collagists. I've thoroughly enjoyed my short association with you. Your superior talents have amazed and amused me, AND added to my understanding of this medium.

I hope we run across each other occasionally in the ether..... JO MURRAY

Please friend me on Facebook (under Marty Gordon) or make me a contact on Flickr (under What Would Jesus Glue). I'd like to keep up with all you fellow Scrappers!

Theme: The End

2011-09-01T10:54:00.000-05:00

Dear Scrapiteria Members and Readers,

After 6 years, I have decided to close this blog (and the Flickr group). I have enjoyed it very much, but it is time for me to work on new projects. I hope that you all continue to make collages and that this group has inspired you in some way. I thank each and every person who has made work for this blog. It has been a pleasure.

I, along with several other members, are on Flickr. You can find me here:
-Snapatorium- . I plan on creating new collage groups there, so if you are interested, keep a lookout!

I wish everyone the best of luck in all you do!

Hugs,
Angelica

p.s. And please, do create collages this week for the End theme.

Greed Is Not Good

After two weeks away in the vast Australian interior I guess I still am influenced by that.

Greed Is NOT Good

I guess I'm making a comment on the plundering of our landscape by the 'goldseekers'... those greedy pigs with their snouts in the trough... chasing the golden apple.

Please welcome our newest member, Clint Chadsey!

I am a retired postal worker from Melrose MA. I've been fooling around with the medium of collage for about 40 years or so. In addition to my post card collages, I also dabble in collage pins and collages mounted in CD jewel cases. My main artistic focus is on box collages and assemblages. My main influences are Joseph Cornell, Ludwig Zeller, and Joan Hall.

2011-07-16T13:49:00.000-05:00

'Steampunk'... that's a new word for this age. Of course English is a 'living' language but it's growing so fast!!!

As an 'oldie' I like to take words literally. I mean 'gay' is 'happy' right? Mmmmm perhaps not anymore.

Anyway Scrapiteria has decreed that the theme is something that I do understand in today's context, but choose not to...

Steampunk

... and it's a free country (or is it?)

One of my favourite shows on TV is 'House', and we've just had the finale of season 7 in Australia. As the show ends, House is in some unknown place with little possibility of returning to his former life. Some net research has found that there IS to be a season 8 (Hooray), but in the meantime... where's House?
