Cut It Out

200606291639 200606291642 (Click on thumbnail for enlargement) Photo collage is an easy way to make a good-looking illustration. But without creativity and dedication, you can't use photo collage to make art. Lou Beach is the king of collage artists, because his work is clever, thought-provoking, and good-looking. As Steven Heller says in the introduction, Beach first decides what he wants to do, then finds the photo elements that will work for his idea. In other words, he is painting with cut-up pictures. The results are amazing. $16.97 on Amazon
