Magic Mushroom Forest – SOLD
collage mixed media 12″x12″ on cradled board $400.00 This is the third in my 12″x12″ forest series. I am trying for a more abstract mood with these efforts. This particular one is actually a peel-off of a dry adhesion collage that just wasn’t working for me. I kept the spiral shapes and turned it upside […]

Vodka Forest SOLD
I finished this collage rather quickly on top of an old one that wasn’t working well. I used Jonathan Talbot‘s technique of dry collaging with papers coated in polymer gloss. Applying heat with an iron seals the pieces to each other and the ground. I believe it the the collagist’s “alla prima” method, since once […]
Williams’ Forest – SOLD

Fantasy Forest SOLD

Home In the Rock SOLD
I did this piece as an entry into the Colorado National Monument Association art show in November 2013. The bottom layer is rows of small paint chip samples. I wanted to build the rocks on that vertical structure. Very little of the original collage is visible (except for the rectangles peeking through in the sky […]
They Call it Civilization NFS
I did this little (10″x10″) collage on top of another because I did not want to waste a beautiful 2″ cradled board. I knew I wanted to use a lot of the magazine papers treated with Citrasolv, a natural product that serves to “melt” the printer’s ink. I entered the finished product in a juried […]
