Every year, my friend and fellow artist LFIRE sends me wonderful artwork for my Holiday gifts. This year she gifted me with a large altered book with each page meticulously collaged,two accordion art books, a handmade greeting card, and a huge dried leaf. The package also included several of LFIRE's original 12" x 9" collages with explicit instructions for me to cut them up and use them to make art of my own.

"HAPPY CHRISTMAS AND MERRY CHANUKAH!" Joint collage by LFIRE and Eco Art by mayah(c)2019 made from recycled materials. 11" x 14" framed.

This was really fun to make--I stayed up until after 3 in the morning today working on it, with no idea of the time!

This collage is made up of two of LFIRE's original collages that she sent me. I liked the left hand side of one collage, and added elements of the second collage onto the right-hand side. Then the hummingbird image (from junk mail), buttons, paper mesh in the right upper corner (given to me by LFIRE), and a few beads were added.

Voila! Out of the two original collages comes a third, a joint collaboration! ...and, as the wise sage Aristotle said, “the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.”

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
