Coffee Collage

I don't know how well this fits in with the modernist painters I've been teaching about- This is a great new use for Adobe PhotoShop. We used to cut up our unfinished or disapointing watercolor paintings and use them as bookmarks or postcards. Now we can just scan them and layer them with other images, maybe play with the colors some and wiola! Digital collage. All the fun of a Rosenquist or a Rauchenburg without having to use any glue! Plus I used my favorite brand's favorite colors (catch the whole homage to Maxwell House?) . Everyone should try this- it's too fun.
