For most of my life, I have held a certain envy for how musicians could spontaneously make music together in a way that eluded visual artists. The current explosion of collaboration in collage has changed that perception for me. Count me in for the occasional \u201cjam session\u201d with another collage practitioner, because there is nothing else like it. My thanks to Boston\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Marycarneycollage\/\" title=\"see more of her artwork\" target=\"_blank\">Mary Madelyn Carney<\/a> for setting me up with a couple great \u201cstarts.\u201d I\u2019m looking forward to what she does with the ones I sent her.
