Process of Creating a Collage

by Linda of All Dunn Design

I print on fabric, using photos and drawings, then collage the piece to make cards and art. Here I began with an old photo, manipulated in Photoshop and printed on fabric:

With the composition settled, I fused the pieces in place, then painted, stitched, and added fabric bits to smooth transitions. I backed and framed with fabric with fabric, like a small quilt. The final piece called “All Life.”
