Críticas

"Oh my word! This book is AMAZING!!! I talked to New York based artist Andrea D'Aquino on my podcast earlier this year when she was still working on “Once Upon A Piece of Paper”. Well, it’s officially out in the world and it is SO GOOD. Brilliant words of wisdom, tips and tricks for making, and actual step-by-step demos. Oh, and there’s more... a second book filled with paper for you to USE for your own collages. Seriously. So good." (The Jealous Curator)

"At UPPERCASE magaine, we have a soft spot for illustrator Andrea D'Aquino's collages--we've featured her twice on past covers and she's a regular contributor in illustrating the Beginnings column.

Andrea's new book invites you to enter a beautiful, papery world–and learn how to create your own! The book comes with 50 two-sided sheets of printed and patterned paper to spark your own collages and visual stories, once upon a piece of paper." (Janine VanGool UPPERCASE)

Once Upon a Piece of Paper: A Visual Guide to Collage is a dynamic mix of art-making wisdom, creative inspiration, and fun activities to guide curious artists on the art of collage. Readers are treated to a simple yet sophisticated "look and learn" approach, all in a very special package.

Yet, how does one begin collaging? While there's not a hard set of rules, collage artist Andrea D'Aquino shows that there are important things a new artist needs to know when they begin making work. As she shares insights into the artistic process, D'Aquino's playful compositions illuminate various approaches to the art form, spark ideas for creativity, and encourage aspiring artists to take risks, allowing space for wonderful accidents to occur. 

The entire package includes an attractive hardcover case with a 112-page paperback book and 50 two-sided sheets of unique, printed collage papers to get you started. This set begs to be the inspiration for all your collage mysteries, discoveries, and creations.
