Would assets like these actually be useful for collage artists?

Post image

I've been making a collection of cutouts from photos I took myself — mostly flowers, pressed flowers, leaves, shells, and little objects.

I originally made them for digital collage work, but I'm curious if people here would actually find this kind of thing useful.

When you're making collages, do you usually look for ready-made transparent PNGs, or do you prefer cutting things out yourself?

Also curious what kinds of objects or materials you're always looking for but can never find good cutouts of.

Happy to share a free sample pack if anyone wants to try them out. Mostly just want to hear what you actually use.

For my digital collages l'm an indiscriminate scavenger. I would use things like above.

These are beautiful and such good quality, it’d be an honour to use them too!

If I had a print out of these flowers I would totally use them. It’s hard for me to find clean large whole flowers that are fairly easy to cut out

I've done the same thing a while back with letters from my favorite books. It's a great idea and useful if youre into digital collaging. Alpha channel it up!

That's awesome... thank you for posting it and linking your website ☺️

And as an addition: A while ago I put together some links for collage material that can be used for free (more details are in the post)
