Bears by Sue Pearson

A guide on techniques and ideas for creating collage art. 3rd Reprint of a very popular pocket sized 1960s book of practical ideas and techniques. Hard cover. I remember when collage was a "Fab Thing" in the late 60s both my art teachers had this. Now fairly rare - I suspect it was loved to death at the time. Excellent opportunuty for a revival !

Creating in Collage

Line-drawn full size plans and Instructions for making pop-up greeting cards. Written for children (particularly girls) aged 6-12 who like doing "snip - snip" crafts. Lots of cutting out and colouring - will keep them quiet for ages - and off the damn phone / tablet / telly for a bit as well. Designed as a "use once" pad of designs but now we all have decent copiers - copy onto light card or heavy paper, and it will last down the generations. (via Rummij)
