Donna has been taking part in ‘Februllage’ – a month of collage-making fun – for six years now. Artists can respond to prompts with an analogue or digital collage. This year, Donna has chosen to impose a number of conditions on her Februllage work: all her collages must be postcard-sized, incorporate a postcard into the work, and use only analogue techniques.  

 ‘I like the discipline of it […] it’s good to have something that gives you a creative push.’ 

Imposing restrictions on making can produce interesting results and can often drive creativity in a direction very different to our usual routes. It’s also fun to try different approaches and see what comes out. Have a look at some of Donna’s Februllage offerings for this year, or take note of the prompts and see how you’d interpret them yourself.
