Today, January 6th, would be my dad’s 74th birthday. He died suddenly and unexpectedly just over a month ago, and I wish so much that he was here to celebrate his birthday. Instead, I will make art in his honor … and I’d like to invite you to do the same! When I wrote my book, ‘Collage’<\/em>, a few years ago, I asked my dad if I could use this hilarious picture of him {mustache}<\/em> and his brother, my Uncle Bill {cowboy}<\/em>, as the starting image for a challenge I’d be giving all thirty artists in the book. As usual, he said yes! So, today, on his 74th birthday, I’d like to give you the same project I gave all of those amazing collage artists from around the world:<\/p>\n

Create a new collage from photograph, circa 1958. Use some, or all, of this image of a little cowboy and his accordion-playing brother. Print it out several times, or use this as the base on which to work. The exciting thing about collage – while the starting image is the same for each of you, every single result will be completely different.\u00a0<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Right click on the photo to save it to your desktop, and then do what you will! Hashtag your final pieces with #DanCummingCollage<\/strong> and I’ll share them on Instagram over the next month or so. Have fun!\u00a0 ps. Here are a few examples from the book. The first one below is mine … because I can never resist a good art challenge:<\/em><\/p>\n
