Collage Corner

A collage tells a story. We often frame collages, from the classic wedding or baby announcement to a graduation piece to a collection of unusual items like wine corks. There's a lot that goes into the making of a good collage. The framing is just one piece of the puzzle. The layout is crucial! Content can dictate or visual balance can rule. It's up to you to decide how you want your story to be told....
