"Hi, I'm Koorash Angali with angali.com. I'm going to give you some tips on what a collage art is. Usually, usually if you take a piece of a picture or a work which is not done by yourself, normally on a piece of paper and put them together that's considered collage. You take this picture, cut out a portion of that like this and then use it on the surface that you have prepared for your particular art. I'll show you a finished collage so that you can understand it could combine a lot of different things. In this collage I have used two postcards that I've cut out and then I have prepared my canvas and painted it the way I wanted and pasted these pictures on it then worked more on top of the picture to put it together and make it all as a whole one piece of work."
