A very specific collage concept developed by Seena Frost, that I like to use in a much more loose format.

The incredible paintings of Julie Heffernan



These paintings move me. Not just because of the skill level involved, but they are classic and creepy and they look right at you.

Changing the face of mental illness with one super sweet 'stache!

http://www.crayonmustache.com/

The incredibly awesome, good and generous Jason made this site. Then he listed a bunch of cool vintage toys (and other wonderful items) on Ebay and is giving all of the money to charity.

My book and poems are available for anyone to read and pass out for free, I hope they will help somebody. I am working on new written works and I would like for this website to showcase works of art, written or otherwise, by others in the mental health community. Thank You and Enjoy! -Jason

Today's little tip about burning things

I like to play with paper and I like to play with matches. I like things to look older than they really are when I use them in collage. Sometimes when I put fire to paper I get a big hot mess, drop it on the ground and burn that too. Soooooo....when you want to singe the edges of a paper, take it outside and burn it with a stick of incense. Thats a new trick for me. An old trick that I also love to hold a flame to the side of a crayon tip and drip the wax onto my collage.

My camera is broken so I can't show you anything I set on fire lately.
