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!

    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!

    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...
