A picture may be worth a thousand words, but you know what’s worth more? A collage! Although it has a long history, it gained popularity as an expressive art method in the 20th century by artists such as Braque and Picasso. The rest, they say, is history.
Today collage apps for Android allow you to cut, tear, move, glue and compose different colors and objects. With a decent app, you can show the fun you had on a graduation party or the night of craziness out with friends. Capturing a series of moments in a collage picture not only saves you time but tells the whole story effectively. It’s easy to express all in a single image.
