Buy My Art Dab Nabbit
Well this is my first whole hearted attempt to really make a splash on squidoo.
I have had an account here for almost two years and have been treading water ever since, but now I thought I give selling my craft a try.
So without further adieu enjoy many of the fine art productions and photography that I will be regularly trying to hawk.
I'm trying to sell 1000 prints or cards by October.
Can you help me with this goal? I sure hope so!!
All of the prints sold are artist signed and ship to anywhere in the continental US, and internationally upon request of a shipping quote.
Please feel free to contact me for larger sizes via squidoo!
"1000 art prints left to go. Help me whittle this number down!"

What Is Collage?
psssst! don't forget to buy one of mine
Let's see what Wikipedia says!
A collage (From the , to glue) is a work of formal art, primarily in the visual arts, made from an assemblage of different forms, thus creating a new whole. Use of this technique made its dramatic appearance among oil paintings in the early 20th century as an art form of groundbreaking novelty.
An artistic collage work may include newspaper clippings, ribbons, bits of colored or hand-made papers, portions of other artwork, photographs, and such, glued to a piece of paper or canvas.
Techniques of collage were first used at the time of the invention of paper in China around 200 BC. The use of collage, however, remained very limited until the 10th century in Japan, when calligraphers began to apply glued paper, using texts on surfaces, when writing their poems.
The technique of collage appeared in medieval Europe during the 13th century. Gold leaf panels started to be applied in Gothic cathedrals around the 15th and 16th centuries. Gemstones and other precious metals were applied to religious images, icons, and also, to coats of arms.
In the 19th century, collage methods also were used among hobbyists for memorabilia (i.e. applied to photo albums) and books (i.e. Hans Christian Andersen, Carl Spitzweg).
The term collage derives from the French "coller" meaning "glue".Brief history of the term "collage" - Online Magazine for watercolor and acrylic artists - by Denise Enslen This term was coined by both Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso in the beginning of the 20th century when collage became a distinctive part of modern art.
