I don’t see one as better than the other. It just depends on the end use. The first one looks cleaner.

Not really sure where I’m heading 
At least I am starting to get my head around Affinity. One thing I just can’t understand is how to get a completely opaque brush. You always seem to have to brush over several times to get a complete covering.

These are gorgeous, Ann! The first bird collage is so pretty with that muted palette and look of tissue paper texture. Lovely writing card. I love the way the ‘tissue’ overflows the lines.
I love the second bird collage for its richness of colour & texture - that bronze is beautiful. I like the image just as well with or without the top layer, too.
And the dandelion collage
right up my alley

So love the colors, textures and elements in "Where the crow flies..."

Thank you both. They are all so different. I still can’t find my ‘style’WOW. These are simply fabulous.... you are on a major roll, girl!

I know what you mean about the brush opacity. It’s really annoying because this is not a problem in other, cheaper apps. I can’t see how to do it too and I’ve been through the many (many!) options.Not really sure where I’m heading

I used to struggle with that.... now I've just become "one" with the fact that I don't have one.I still can’t find my ‘style’
I'm eclectic and like too many different types of things/looks etc.
Ditto. It still annoys me a tiny bit that I can’t perfect one “style”, but hey ho.I used to struggle with that.... now I've just become "one" with the fact that I don't have one.
Right, I think I’ve done it! I’ve created my own brush!
So tap the brush tool on the right, then tap the square box at the top and choose Add Category. It will call it Brushes but if you go back and choose Rename Category you can call it what you like. Now select New Round Brush.
Under General, these were my settings. I wanted to start with a fairly thin brush so the size is quite small and I also made a fat one later.
Under Dynamics I choose this:
The size which I have set to 49% gives it a slight taper at the start and finish. I made a small one with a taper and a fat one without - see image below.
There should be no images in the texture section.
Once you have set this, make sure that the paint brush at the bottom with the drip is unselected.
Hope this works for you!

Maybe it’s our personality. Want to try too many different things and not the type to stick with one thing and perfect it. I am the kind of person who gets bored easily.Ditto. It still annoys me a tiny bit that I can’t perfect one “style”, but hey ho.
But you produce such beautiful collages - I would say that you do have a style, but it might not be the one that you want. The images that you’ve posted here are just lovely.
I’ll try it and let you know. But if you say it works, then I’m sure it does.
I think it takes more time to find your centre. And when you think you know what it is it keeps evolving. There are so many exciting new things to try and explore. Maybe that is a style in itself. It may take years for something unique to yourself will emerge and others will see it first. Maybe you’re an explorer. In any case, don’t worry, be happy.
That sounds about right!
are all so different. I still can’t find my ‘style’
Our gain
you keep looking, Ann, and we’ll just enjoy the explorations
