Collage art is technique in art consisting of cutting as well as pasting natural or manufactured supplies to a colored or plain surface. It is mostly in the visual arts, made out of an assemblage of different kinds put together to create a new whole art. A collage may include broadsheets clippings, ribbons, pieces of tinted or hand-made papers, parts of other artworks, photographs together with other discovered objects that are glued to a sheet of paper, construction paper or canvas.

Making collage art lets you change typical substances like paper and found objects into an artwork. Since it is the month of October it is suitable to make a Halloween collage art, it's particularly enjoyable to create given that you can actually establish a sense of spookiness or humor with old Halloween cards, cutout words, and altered images.

Below are tips on how to make a Halloween collage art:

1. Be inspired by browsing through the Internet for concepts for Halloween collage art. There are plenty of photos on the Internet having vibrant photos with ghouls, pumpkins as well as witches. If you're creating a collage art with small children it will be a good idea to view the pictures to be sure the photos are kid safe.

2. Purchase some card stock that has a Halloween, autumn or maybe creepy design. Use it as the backdrop, or paint a canvas stretcher board dark or midnight blue. You may make it a lot more ingenious by having your own or the children's painting on the collage art. It'll give a hint of your personality.

3. Find pictures again you could find various on the Internet. Many art collage artists use Victorian photos, but you can use family photos or cutouts from books and magazines. Excellent sources for photographs are thrift stores and yard sales. Some graphic artists sell collage sheets for download and printed out or delivered in the mail. Images from Halloween greeting cards can also be found in this format.

4. Mount the background to support with clear tacky adhesive or a glue stick. Any kind of even, solid surface that won't twist is acceptable. You can use a board, a canvas stretcher, a paper mache or wooden plaque, a playing card, or even a tag. It's also possible to make a shadow box through an empty candy tin or shallow box.

5. Cut out photos. Cut witch hats from black-colored paper, designed paper or newsprint. Paste photo to the backdrop and put the witch hat. Clip words with a Halloween or creepy theme from old textbooks or newspapers. Paste them to the collage.

6. Include some extra on your collage art, like cutouts from old-fashioned or modern Halloween cards, worn out jewelry as well as keys, scrabble tiles, container caps with words stamped in it, fibers as well as beads. Use chalks, watercolors, distressing inks or rubberized stamps to highlight or add features. You should be as resourceful as you may be.

7. Punch holes in the piece and attach wire to hold it or maybe you could tape the Halloween collage art on the wall.

Collage art is really a wonderful activity for you and your family members specifically if you have small ones with wild imagination or creativity. It's actually an art that you can preserve and give them as soon as they grow older.
