Paper craft drawing

Was looking back at my early 2022 art yesterday, and in stories I showed off some of my painted paper collage, and they really inspired me to experiment with a more collage like style in digital art as well!! This was made using Photoshop and just my mouse (no drawing stylus or anything like that) and I basically just used the polygonal lasso tool to make the shapes and then did clipping masks with different textures I've scanned through the years! I really love how it turned out…

Paper might be one of the most accessible art-making tools available on a large scale and in huge quantities. However, this wasn't always the case. During the Renaissance, paper was still considered a costly material. Hence, painters who could afford it often utilized both sides of a sheet as the paper was too valuable to throw away. And although other artistic mediums could compete with paper in terms of durability, nothing ever came close to its versatility and ease of use.
