Great use and potential reuse of the last bits of paint and paper. This is a perfect example of my grandmother's favorite adage, 'waste not, want not.'
Sounds exactly like what my grandmother would say, and probably my mother too! I do love to use up every last piece. Thanks for watching.
The 4x4 blocks is fantastic. Can't wait to try this.
I really hope you give it a try David--the results are surprisingly good!
Many thanks for these awesome and practical ideas! You are very talented.
Thanks so much, Marie! I hope you are inspired along your creative journey.
AWESOME!! Great ideas, love all those 4x4 canvases, that's a great project.
Thanks Becky! I agree, those little canvases have been fun to work on.
your so inspirpring and creative!!!
Thank you so much for your kind words Terri! I hope you are blazing your own creative trail.
I'm loving all of your idea's on using up collage papers. I'm so doing these, loving card making and tags. Awesome video!!!
I'm glad to know that I am not alone in my love for using collage papers! Seems like the ideas are endless. Glad you are inspired by some new ideas.
Thank you so much for sharing such wonderful idea❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I appreciate you watching and also thanks for letting me know you found some inspiration!
Love these ideas, and they look awesome!
Thanks for letting me know--if you try one of them I'd love to hear about it!
You make good graphic marks on your collage paper. That certainly inspires reuse.
Thanks! I hope this inspires you to make your own.
I am thrilled on your suggestions for using leftover paints and collage papers. thanks for sharing 💜
I am glad to hear that you enjoyed the suggestions, Kirsten! I am a big proponent of using what you have.
Thank you Pam for sharing ❤
Thanks Gisele! I appreciate you watching and following along.
Love it. Thaks for sharing.
Thanks so much Annie! I appreciate you watching.
Just what I needed for my huge pile of "too good to toss out but what do I do with them?" Love your style and like the pace of your video.Thanks.
Thanks so much! I'm glad you've found some new ideas for how to use your stash of paper.
Those cardstock pieces in the beginning are gorgeous in there own right! I like the cheap Dollar Tree or Five Below “water paper” (not really great for watercolor) but wonderful as a substrate.
And be still my hears at the 4x4 gallery wall! Inspires me!
Thanks so much! I will have to check out the Dollar Tree water paper--it's always fun to try something new (and when it's cheap you've got nothing to lose!)
I'll do collages on card stock. The ones I'm not really crazy about, I'll turn into about 10 tags (no ribbon) & sell for gift tags/book marks at the gallery I'm at. I usually don't charge much for them as they would otherwise go in the trash, & at least I'm recouping a little more than cost for them.
That is a great idea. I love that you have found a way to make back some of the cost of your supplies. And congrats on being in a gallery--that's huge!
Great ideas - thanks for sharing! 🤩
Thanks for watching Natalie! Glad you found it helpful.
oh my god when you showed the whole board I was amazed, they are awsome! Im trying it all out, I just got my first stabilo I can't wait to use it. Thx
Thanks for your excitement about those mini canvases! I appreciate you watching the video and I hope you have fun using your Stabilo!
I love those cards. Great idea
Thanks--I hope you give it a try!
really fabulous ideas
Thanks for letting me know it was helpful!
Your enthusiasm is inspiring. Always look forward to your new videos. Thanks for showing the variety of ways to use up our spare paint.🙂👍💙
Thanks for letting me know, Andrea--that means so much! I am a big fan of not wasting anything--even the extra paint on my brush!
Wonderful video! Thank you for all your effort. Much appreciated❤️
Thanks for your kind words, Julie! I appreciate you watching
I love this! I have so many ideas now for mark making on different papers from my stash. ❤❤
I'm so glad you got some new ideas, Teresa! Thanks for letting me know.
Great ideas
Thanks Marilyn--I'm glad you found it helpful! Thanks for watching and letting me know.
I would be very interested in how you store/organize your papers to find anything... I am all over the palace and can't figure out the best way to organize all the papers!😅
To be honest I just keep my papers in a big stack--not the most organized system. I have seen some artists organize their paper by color and keep it in clear folders or bags or bins.
I am sssooo frugal so this is music to my ears. Fantastic ideas!
I hear ya Rebecca. I am frugal too so I totally get you. Glad you found the video helpful!
I really love your style and your color pallette
Thanks so much! I hope you find inspiration for your own creativity!
Great ideas! They look like miniature works of art! Thanks for sharing ❤
Thanks so much for your kind words, Theresa! I appreciate you watching.
Are you putting a sealer over them also?
Yes, I used a spray varnish on the mini canvases when I was done.
@@pamhemmerling What type of varnish do you recommend? Are there any that are not sprayed but only brushed on?
@@artiste335 There are all types of varnish out there but I am not an expert as honestly I rarely varnish my paintings. I have used the Sennelier spray on soft pastels or anything that is water soluble so it doesn't rub off.
Sometimes I brush my extra paint on a rubber stamp and it gives that nice texture impression...only con is having to clean the stamp :). I love your video
That's a great idea Jade! I will definitely give that a try sometime.
Tks for sharing ❤❤❤
I appreciate you watching Barb! Hope you give it a try.
Great ideas!
Thanks Angela! I appreciate you watching!
im happy to have discovered your videos, i think if you tightened up the editing just a little bit cutting out false starts to sentences and such they would be that much greater and easier to share with others
Thanks for your suggestions. I'm definitely working on my editing skills (and also my video, audio, lighting and talking while making art skills!).
Thanks so much for this video! A local art gallery does a 6x6 fund raiser and I would love to contribute (not an artist). I might actually try this technique! Thanks for the inspiration!
I hope you do give it a try Roberta! (And I think you are an artist even though it's hard to describe yourself as one.)
Love this! I do gelli print papers and these are great ideas for using up the papers! love your style!
Thanks Kathy! Isn't it shocking how the papers pile up?! It's so fun to find different ways to use them.
I really love your style. Very inspiraing.
I appreciate that! Hope you are finding ways to use your collage papers.
I absolutely love your ideas and your collage work, especially the 4 x 4 canvases. Just brilliant! Are you hanging them up on a wall? Are you intending to sell them?
Thanks Deborah! I have some on the wall and others I have listed for sale on my website. Thanks for watching!
I like your work
Thanks so much Pamela! I appreciate you watching.
🙏🙏🙏
Thanks Geraldine!
