When I go through my RSS reader (Google if we're picking favourites), I often scan through until I see something that grabs me. It's mostly art or design, or something that screams "collage!" even though it's not collage. This method helps me get through the 500 posts a day that show up there... Yes, I have a very close relationship with my laptop, and that's how I know what I do!
So the new idea, if I can keep up with it, is to have a weekly feature that shows off what I've seen around the internet that relates to this site. Not all of it is collage, just like not everything on this site is collage (pretty close to it, though). I choose images that inspire me to get out my scissors, and I know you'll like them too!
Why do I love fonts made out of paper so much? I guess because it gives them a much more human quality.

New blog from never always that features art from his sons during a summer vacation tradition of "Dad's Drawing Class." This year, they made some great collages!

A pretty purple pattern from Oh Joy! that reminds me of the work from Ophelia Chong.

I came across this pretty randomly, on the Book Design Review, but seeing as how collage pops up on book cover all the time, I'm not surprised. The writer for BDR is Joseph Sullivan, and he included a piece of his own work this week.

If there is something called "thread collage" this is it. An embroidered visual diary by Takashi Iwasaki is on display in Toronto this month, and I am definitely going to go and see it up close!

And for a little more embroidery, here is the work of Tilleke Schwarz. It takes the collage artists that incorporate thread and fabric in their work to a whole new level.
