BAFA Focus on Collage

Beaumont Area Fiber Artists have challenged themselves to do a journal page collage in the format and media of their choice each month.  We agreed to keep the size the same each time we did a page and to add text to our textile if we so chose.  We could change our theme and word every month and/or riff off of same word each month.  It will be interesting to see what we get over time.  Some work was cropped and/or rotated for visual impact or, simply,to present another view.  See our first collages below (fig. 1 - 13).
