paper collage and acrylic on cardboard panel
gregory a. milinovich
here is a collage i made yesterday. i am learning some new techniques with acrylic paint as well some other things. so, this was my first real adventure into using paint and paper in a collage. i had fun with it.
just thought i'd post that this morning. i have to go preach now...

i love it. i was actually checking out a little art show in the mall that i work at and there were some collages that were submitted. Two of which i didn't like because they were just magazine clippings of famous people...but one i really liked which used papers along with acrylic paint like you mentioned. i love the mixed mediums look.

Hey Greg, sometime between Friday and this post on Sunday you broke 1,000. Congrats. Although now that I know your secret maybe 1,000 just isn't that impressive....


(just kidding it is, especially if it's all you!)

thank you, emily. it feels good to reach 4 digits. actually, i am absolutely amazed that i get that many visitors based on the fact that it is the same 5 people who comment. weird. i feel like there are a host of voyeours out there, watching but not talking, like peeping toms, holding their breath so as not to be heard or seen or caught.

so, to all of you silent visitors, come out of the closet!

who goes there?

i'm giving away the swamp

so this is a collage called swamp. i made it in february of last year. it is currently framed in a homemade, hand-painted frame. it is paper collage on a book binding panel. it is 7" x 10". and i am giving it away. i've been wanting to have a blog giveaway for some time, and the time has finally arrived. here's how it works. all you need to do is leave a comment on this post. by leaving a comment you are automatically entered into the contest (as long as your comment offers a way for me to get in touch with you, or you know that i know you). the contest will be open until next wednesday at noon, eastern standard time. at that time the contest will officially be closed and i will pick a random number. the person whose comment matches that number wins! for example, if i happen to pick the number 33, the thirty-third comment will win. oh, and one more rule: you can only post ONCE. if you win, i will send you the collage, signed by me, the artist, free of c...

bad haircuts (for a laugh)

everybody needs to laugh.  one good way i have found to make that happen is to do a simple google image search for 'bad haircut.'  when you do so, some of the following gems show up.  thankfully, my 9th grade school picture does NOT show up.  otherwise, it would certianly make this list!  please laugh freely and without inhibition.  thank you and have a nice day.

affirmed

i cannot express today the feeling i have. this picture that i found sort of expresses it but not really. for the last ten years i have poured myself into this vocation, daring to believe that God, the very God of all creation, has called me, even me, to this work. along the way many have affirmed me in this journey, but i have continued to work for the ultimate affirmation, ordination as an elder in the united methodist church. and now i have it. after two grueling (and i mean grueling in every possible sense, really) days i recieved the call today that the board voted to recommend me to the annual conference for ordination as an elder. and as i have already said, i cannot even begin to express the emotion i feel with words like relief, joy and satisfaction. there will be plenty of time for me to reflect on this and i will have more to say about it as i do that reflecting, but today is really a day for celebrating for me, and for thanking those who have journeyed with me and s...
