    Lost in Time & Other Art

    Lost in Time, paper collage, 2025 Here are some recent experiments in collage art. Also, I mentioned in a previous post that I was thinking of narrowing the focus of The Used Life… I’ve changed my mind. I actually did make some changes to my logo and About page several days ago that transformed this…

    Stay Cosmic & Other Art

    Stay Cosmic, paper collage, 2025 I recently purchased some new collage materials (courtesy of The Brass Grasshopper), including an interior design book from the 1970s, as well as a bunch of 70s Life magazines…and I’ve been having so much fun with them. That said, you’ll find several interiors, or inside-outside collages in this collection, as…

    It Goes to My Head & Other Art

    It Goes to My Head, paper collage, 2025 After my last artwork post on Monday, I thought I was done collaging for the week. But I felt late yesterday afternoon like I might be in the mood to make “a few quick ones”…which turned into a dozen or so collages made between yesterday and today.…

    In the Wild & Other Art

    In the Wild, paper collage, 2025 Here are some new experiments in collage art. There’s lots of smoking in this collection. That’s because I just picked up some 70s Life magazines that have great cigarette ads in them. I love vintage cigarette ads. There are also some fall-themed compositions in here. And last but not…

    Desert Hangout & Other Art

    Desert Hangout, paper collage, 2025 Here are some new experiments in collage art. I had a lot fun with these, and I’m pretty happy with the way they turned out. I’ve added prints for both Desert Hangout and We Come from Stranger Times to my Etsy shop. It’s possible I’ll add a few more from…

    To the Moon and Back & Other Art

    To the Moon and Back, paper collage, 2025 Here are some new experiments in collage art. A few notes about this collection…first, there are lots of layers. I’ve been in the mood to work with layers lately. You may also notice more of the same spacey skies that have been recurring in my artwork over…

  • Cosmic Summer

    Cosmic Summer

    Cosmic Swim, paper collage, 2025 I don’t like naming my collages. That’s one of the reasons I typically choose simple descriptive titles. I don’t like analyzing my work, and I don’t like forcing it to mean something. I like to create fun (and sometimes funny) fantasy worlds that I would like to inhabit–or that I…

  • Sea View & Other Art

    Sea View & Other Art

    Sea View, paper collage, 2025 I recently scooped up a vintage book of undersea photographs at a local antique shop. The backdrop of Sea View is my favorite image in that book. In fact, it’s actually a two-page spread. In the image above, I edited the final scanned collage to remove the center seam where…

  • Movin’ On & Other Art

    Movin’ On & Other Art

    Movin’ On (no. 1 of 4), paper collage, 2025 When I first started collaging, I used to finish compositions very quickly. If I found a few pieces that worked reasonably well together, they got the glue. The reason for that, I think, was lack of practice. I found two pieces that actually go together? Score!…
