Bill’s Tree SOLD
My former hairdresser, Bill, had an intriguing weeping mulberry tree in his front yard. It was full of intertwined branches in the winter and full of birds in the nicer weather. I always loved to walk by it on my way to his hair salon. Bill passed away in April 2012. I attempted this rendition of […]
Making Peace with Circles-SOLD
This watermedia piece was done on a hand-made piece of paper. True to my style, it also has layers of collaged materials underneath. It turned into a grid by accident as I stamped in the circles. I named it “Making Peace with Circles” because of the calm blue background and the fact that I do […]
Rock Face-SOLD
I just completed this mixed media collage to exhibit at the Mesa County Library in conjunction with selected pieces from the permanent collection of The Art Center. The exhibit is about Mesa County landscapes. I am generally reluctant to do an artwork depicting the Monument. I have always considered it to be a daunting undertaking […]
Post Card Series for CMU
I responded to a call for 4×6 inch postcard art for the Legacy Campaign Exhibit at Colorado Mesa University here in Grand Junction. All proceeds benefit the Art Department for a permanent endowment. I doctored a postcard series that I had started using pieces from Broadway playbills when I was in Manhattan in the spring […]
Early Morning Bird Meeting SOLD
This is the third in my series of forest collages populated by birds and done on a 10×10 inch cradled board. It was featured in my show at The Dairy Art Center in Boulder, Colorado in July 15, 2011. This piece sold at the 2014 KAFM art auction.
Topiary Forest SOLD
This another of my mixed media oil experiments. It is truly a fantasy forest. I started it as a demo for a local art club and it soon took on a life of its own. It is done on a wrapped canvas and is 18 inches x 24 inches. It will be in the Dairy […]
Old City SOLD
I have had this piece floating around my studio for a while and it has gone through several incarnations. I just happened to look at it the other day and realized I really like it. The inspiration is Jerusalem. It is watermedia on collaged paper. This piece won the Leon T. Hake Memorial Award at […]
Bird Party SOLD
I just finished this another one of my fantasy forest collages. This is done on a 10 inch by 10 inch cradled board so needs no framing. This painting has sold.
God’s Window
This postcard collage just won an award in the National Collage Society‘s annual postcard show. I enter this show every year as a member of the society. I find it is a great exercise to create the most interesting collage I can within a 4 inch by 6 inch space.
