In this post, I’m sharing how I make Tiny Urban Collages using paint chips, tracing paper, and urban-inspired imagery. It’s a fun, low-pressure way to explore layering, collage, and tiny studies with materials you may already have on hand.

A creative adventure is coming—and you get to choose where it takes you. Think free art resources, inspiring artists, and plenty of room to explore your own way.

Shakkei at Elmhurst Art Museum explores “borrowed scenery,” an idea that also shapes how I gather inspiration for my art.
