Collage, Assemblage, and Altered Art: Creating Unique Images and Objects - Softcover

Artist-author Diane Maurer-Mathison begins with an overview of collage, including history, tools, and techniques, plus materials and the principles of colour and design. She then proceeds with sections on collage, assemblage, and altered art - each detailing the various creative possibilities and including inspirational projects. Detailed step-by-steps, clear instructions, plus beautiful full-colour photographs of examples by noted artists, make this the complete reference guide to the art of collage.

Diane Maurer-Mathison has work in many museums around the world, including the Cooper-Hewitt Museum and the Harvard University Library. Her books include "Art of the Scrapbook" and "Paper in Three Dimensions." She lives in Spring Mills, Pennsylvania.
