Harry Potter Collage
©2003 - 2007 by aisling d'art
At left is a photo a large mixed media collage on canvas board. All of the collage elements relate to
the early Harry Potter novels.
The background was painted black with Maimeri's "Brera" acrylic paint. Then, I added the paper collage elements, using Golden gel medium as an adhesive (Liquitex will work well, too).
The dimensional elements include feathers, a plastic lizard, and a small, clear-lidded tin with glitter inside. I applied them with hot glue and with extra-strength craft glue.

The first page of the first Harry Potter book and the book cover are originals, not copies. (Yes, I tore up a Harry Potter book to create the art.)
I avoided copyright issues by (a) not making this work for sale; and, (b) using only original images that were purchased (not reproduced) for this project.
