A collage (From the French: coller, to glue) is a work of formal art, primarily in the visual arts, made from an assemblage of different forms, thus creating a new whole.

A collage may include newspaper clippings, ribbons, bits of colored or hand-made papers, portions of other artwork, photographs and other found objects, glued to a piece of paper or canvas. The origins of collage can be traced back hundreds of years, but this technique made a dramatic reappearance in the early 20th century as an art form of novelty.

The term collage derives from the French "coller" meaning "glue". This term was coined by both Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso in the beginning of the 20th century when collage became a distinctive part of modern art.

How can I make a good quality photo collage on regular paper for a Christmas mailing?
Q. I know I can make a collage at Wal-Mart on photo paper. Can I then just do regular Xerox-type copies at a copy center of decent quality? How much is a color print? THANKS!

A. You can make a copy of your photo on regular paper. You have to realize though that when you make a copy from a photo to regular paper you will lose some quality as well as some of the detail. However, it's totally up to you on what is acceptable. You would have to play with it. I make cards all of the time with my color printer, and regular paper. The quality is acceptable to me since I'm not sending something that doesn't have lot of detail in the first place. I hope this answers your question.

A. It's funny in that just about everybody I talk to wants to become a marine biologist. Tell me, is this something you really see yourself doing? I implore you to read this article: And this one: Don't start acting on something until you're sure it's what you want to do. You're reaching the point where you can't reverse your mistakes. Good luck!

How do i make a collage on paint?
Q. Im trying to make a collage that has pictures of me and all my friends. They told me to use paint, but i cant figure out how.

A. Well, the answer above me is dealing with the computer version of creating a collage. If you are talking about making a real collage using your existing photos and are wondering how to stick them down, use an acrylic gel medium. Gloss gel will give you a glossy shiny finish and matte gel will give you a matte (not shiny) finish. You can find acrylic gel mediums in the Utrecht brand or Golden Paints also makes many varieties of acrylic gel mediums.
