Consider Telling Stories with Collage

Kathryn Antyr, a.k.a. “Collage Diva” is into telling stories with collage. “[I]t was during my first year of blogging when I found my voice and discovered that I’m the hero of my own story and creative journey,” she writes.

Antyr offers a workshop on storytelling with collage.

She also shows several story collages she uses in the workshop in a slideshow.

Finally, she offers a link to a chat she had with Leah Piken Kolidas about using art to re-tell our stories and using the Hero’s Journey as a framework in Antyr’s online workshop.

One of the things I find most intriguing about Antyr’s story work with collage is that she uses a awesome application called Smilebox that I first wrote about here. Smilebox is kind of an digital scrapbooking tool that enables folks to make slideshows, scrapbooks, photo albums and more. I believe you could even build Web sites with it.

Sadly, I downloaded Smilebox almost a year ago and still haven’t had a chance to do anything with it.
