Happy new month everybody, this is the second and last update of the collage contest. There is one more week left to show your amazing creations and win one of the prizes .I am really happy to see that the contest is gaining momentum and last week the community had a lot of entries. Always keep in mind to include some process photos or a gif and no reposts or posts that have a showcase of photos. Collage is an creative art medium and has nothing to with apps that combine photos together.
Collage Medium.
Collage is an easy medium for artists or creatives to express themselves with simple tools or basic knowledge of Photoshop. This leaves a lot of room for the imagination and in my opinion this is the reason why collage is such an important medium. In a way you exercise your imagination to think of impossible combinations, to alter the real and make it surreal and dreamy. Cutting, arranging and pasting your favourite images together is a relaxing process and in time if you are persistent you can find you own style.
Handcut collage example.
Contest Guidelines.
Same as the previous contest there will be no theme just use your imagination and try to create a composition of images that pleases you aesthetically or have a message to convey to the viewer. As source material you can use images that you own, magazine clippings or images you found on the Internet, as long as you are not violating in rules of copyrights. I would suggest this Library of free images as a good way to start your collage adventures.
Digital collage example.

I am very excited to see the variety of submissions and wish good luck for everyone who is taking part!
I am really excited too:) We have one more week and i am looking forward to see more:)
Hi, @georgeboya,
I made two. I definitely like one better than the other. Perhaps I will just share the second in my post. I can't decide between them--completely different themes (what was in my head??) I guess I'll let my husband decide :))
Oh this so nice:) I think you should post both of them, they are your creations of equal value:) Looking forward to see them and sorry for the late answer:)
Thanks for the answer. And thank you so much for the fun :) I will post the two.
Congratulations @georgeboya! You received a personal award!

Hi,
I think I messed up. I went to the community site, I thought, and posted. It turns out I have an OCD post. I've no idea how that happened.
Oh well, here it is for your perusal even though it probably doesn't qualify for the contest now.
Mayan Mystery
Here is the entry collage
and the second collage:
However this works out, I had a very creative experience making these. Thank you for that :)
I don't think I'm going to try to post to communities anymore. Too confusing.
Regards, AG
No worries, i will count your entry as a legit:) Is the art that counts the most not the rules:)
Wow, that's really benevolent. Collages and digital execution give me the opportunity to explore ideas. I'm learning, as I'm learning to navigate the platform---if it would only stand still :)) It keeps changing! Thank you!
