hello all
i've decided to embroaden my artistic endeavors into collage, as i was deeply inspired by a postcard i found on the floor of my room... and i've decided to do a daemon collage. i'm not doing a portrait like maia - more of a general.... daemony.... thing. ahem.
so, i was wondering:
1. maia, may i print out the old daemon portrait to use for some background stuff in my collage?
2. ice, may i use your 'daemons are lifes flowers' quote?
3. raven, may i use your raven watercolor drawing, also for background imaging?
and 4. does anyone know where to find magazines with pictures of animals in them?
i'll give everyone updates as i plod along. it'll be slow going, but i think the result will be quite spiffy. ^^

Of course you can!.... It sounds like a fun project.. Please let us know how its going and stuff. As for magazines with animals in, sometimes you can pick up old back issues of "National Geographic" for really cheap in charity or thrift shops. Other wise, most big newsagents and bookshops should have a variety of animal themed magazines.  |

You have my permission to use it. I would also say National Geographic. |

thank you, everyone ^^
as of right now, i have a basic idea - there's this very cool heart in the center, with 'd a e m o n' across it in cut-out newspaper letters. (that part is done.)
maia's picture is going to be in the bottom right corner in the background, with ice's quote over it in cut-out magazine letters... and ravey's watercolor will be in the top left corner, with various things surrounding it. i'm also going to put some pictures of animals next to pictures of people, with silver ribbons connectiong them, and i have some feathers i'd like to glue on as well. ^^
....it's a big project. i'll scan it when i'm done.
::runs off to eat lunch/look for national geographics::

i definitely just spent all afternoon making a collage for art class. ;D
i was gonna say natl geographic too... >__>; there are plenty of other magazines with animals in 'em, though, i'm sure it won't be hard to find.
the silver ribbon idea is totally fab, btw.

Wall calendars always have good pictures of animals. I'd recomend something like WWAF (if that is correct. It's a world wide animal something or other anyways) calendar, because they have a variety of animals. I wonder...do they have national geographic calendars...
