A Collage a Day: Friday

I promised to give you a collage prompt every day this week. Using the word Friday as the prompt collect images of the word Friday, and other words you associate with Friday. Also several images of what Friday means to you.
If you like add one word from the list below to make your visual journal session even more challenging. Be aware that the word Friday could bring up all kinds of images for you. While you’re collecting your images don’t censor yourself. Just allow whatever draws you to end up in your pile of collage material.
List of extra words:
debate
willing
coping
final
break
green
pink
measure
dent
express
Use either a prepared background page from your journal, or a blank piece of paper you can later glue into your journal. Cut or tear around the edges of the images and words. Arrange them in a way that pleases you. Don’t spend a long time worrying about it, though. Just play with the pieces, glue and push them onto the page. Use paint, pens or whatever you feel like to add colour, more words, or other images you just couldn’t find in your search to complete you collage.
Magazines are a great resource for collage materials, but search online for images you can use, too. Remember to have lots of fun. Relax and enjoy this visual journal writing prompt. Look for ways to make the days different. Focus on what is unique about each day of the week for you. Please leave any comments in the section below.
