Overview

This book acts as a showcase for a collaborative art project sponsored by artists Angela Cartwright and Sarah Fishburn. The project explores the theme of "gardens" as a metaphor for peace, beauty, tranquility, reflection, and creativity, while at the same offering readers an inspiring collage workbook that explores the techniques, methods, and the insights of the participating artists. The book includes inspiring garden-related quotes that artists can use in their own work, a blank "garden gate" template, and a gallery of garden-themed imagery that readers can alter and use in their own artwork.
