Question: Anyone know the principles of making your own photomosaic, by hand, no computer!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Assemble a lot of photos!. These can be actual photographic prints or photos from magazines!.Decide what your image is going to be and draw it, then basically start "painting" with pieces of the photos!. You can cut them or tear them to whatever size and shape you want!. The finished photomosaic is interesting because close up people can distinguish little intriguing elements of the images they came from!.

This project requires a lot of patience!. It's easiest if you allow the pieces to overlap, so you don't have to worry about fitting them together and you don't wind up with white spaces!. You should glue the pieces one at a time, otherwise the glue dries too quickly!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
