Cory Celaya

I took a fabulous class with Cory Celaya in Arizona today.

We began by making collage papers:


Next, we painted a canvas:

Then we collaged our handmade and other papers onto our painted canvas, and painted over the collaged papers. We stamped and doodled a bit. This is how mine turned out:


I really like it. I'm not sure yet whether it will become a handbag, a wall hanging, a book cover, or something else entirely!

  5. This is so cool. Love the combined effect. Paper and fiber can transform in ways I'd never know...and would love to learn. How fun!

  7. I still think mine will probably become a clutch purse.
    Still need to get to work on it though. LOL

    One small strip will go into my shrine- but the main body of the piece is now cut for a purse.

    I have some old drapery fabric pieces I want to tr this technique with...
