If You Can Cut, You Can Collage is specially designed for people
who feel like they can't make art. Want to know a secret? You can!
You just need a little inspiration, instruction, and confidence.

for other endeavors. You can still explore and experiment with
color, composition, and various themes and end up with exciting and
often unexpected results. If you Can Cut, You Can Collage takes
some of the mystery out of collage through easy illustrated pages
that show you the basic techniques of collecting and cutting
imagery, composing and adhering compositions, and then provides a
wealth of exercises that get readers going on their own creative
projects. We'll get you started with simple, focused, projects like
making a collage with only circles, where you'll learn important
concepts like how to create a focal point, how to use repetition
successfully, how to achieve contrast, balance, symmetry, and more.

and even urban and found materials in no time!
