Magazine technique/part 1!

I belong to a group which explores different techniques each month for designing papers. This month we are to start with tearing magazine pages and glue them to heavyweight WC paper with fluid gel medium. I have saved my Victoria magazines from the beginning. These 2 collages were done from 4 different 1997 issues. I will be adding to these 8"x10" papers when I do the next step.

Ahaha! Wonderful picture at the top. And wonderful ideas! As a paper artist myself, I shall have to try this out. Please come and visit my site at www.studiomme.etsy.com or my blog at http://studiomme.blogspot.com. I feature artists every Wednesday. If you are interested, I would gladly feature you. I only ask that you return the favor. Thanks!

I'm not familiar with a lot of terms. What is a "fluid gel medium?" A product name would be helpful.
