ONE book or magazine or some of your pre-cut images will do. Now have fun creating a Monochromatic Masterpiece!

Picnic down by the riverside.

A LOVELY PICNIC and a Change of Scene

 

After years of appearing in the dark woods of "The Luncheon on the Grass" 1863 by Edouard Manet, I thought I would give this crew a new locale (and a couple of new things to eat).

So here they are in "The Roseland Riviera" of Trelissick, Cornwall!

Picnic.....................Al Fresco with Shed

How to pick a picnic spot

 1. Avoid a picnic spot with an audience.

I know it is hot hot hot, but sometimes you've gotta get out there and have a bite in the breeze. Don't forget to invite the ants!

Flower Power: Thru the Flowers

I added in some copies of sketch from a recent art class.

Well, I wish I could say I created a collage for last week's theme in the "nick of TIME" but alas it was not to be. I am sorry TIME escaped me. Next TIME I will be sure to make TIME to create a collage about TIME. In the meanTIME here is this week's theme. Have fun with it.

Sir Peelalot demonstrates a nobleman's favorite way with oranges and (next) lemons

Joseph Hyacinthe François de Paule de Rigaud, comte de Vaudreuil was a Saint Dominican French nobleman at the court of King Louis XVI. He was the alleged lover of Gabrielle de Polastron, duchesse de Polignac, the favourite of Marie Antoinette and over whom he exerted a powerful influence. (Painting by Germain Drouais, 1758.)
 

Orange and Lemon mining

 

Jack Lemon Meringue Pie

Theme: Oranges & Lemons

Hope this citrus theme a-peels.

Could be the fruits, the colours, a president's boat race

or anything inspired by the traditional English folksong/rhyme.

DADA Games

"Chicken Juggling" the Sport of Angels

I know I still have one day to create but please forgive me for posting a collage from the archives. I have had another round of major disruption in our house renovations and it has been difficult for me to make time to think about making a new collage. So I present a collage I made 13 years ago and I hope you enjoy it again! I particularly love this collage as the angel is carefully cut from a piece of antique sheet music I found at a charity shop.

Collector Football ATCs

Dynamic Sporty Balls

Pass the kitchen implement race.

 Never been a big fan of sport…I only watch snooker.

I might watch this race though….😅.

Theme: Sports

I chose this as the football World Cup kicks off today

but the theme is open to all sport-related collages.

Let the games begin!

June's Pupaphobia Brought on Reoccurring Nightmares Specifically Involving Punch

Psychologists often link pupaphobia to the "uncanny valley" effect. This is the unsettling feeling people experience when confronted with objects that look almost, but not exactly, like real humans. Because puppets are inanimate objects that mimic living creatures and are controlled by someone else, they can evoke feelings of unpredictability and fear.

Rock Apple Cake

When Kate was in the Congo filming The African Queen...

 ...biscuits she had brought along were useful to keep the playful denizens of the jungle at bay.

BISQUICK BETTY

Bisquick was a staple in our house when I was growing up! A premixed baking blend to get those biscuits baked in a hurry. (You may see shadows on the images I pasted down using 3-D foam squares as Betty was made as a shadowbox collaged image I submitted to a craft challenge.) I will happily make another collage for this challenge from "scratch". Ha ha
