Imaginary Conversations & Other Art
Imaginary Conversations, paper collage, 2022 Here’s a fresh batch of artwork. All of these collages are minimal. In fact, Photographic is the only one that’s more than two pieces. When I first started my collage practice, I focused on combining lots of pieces, with filling the page with random and/or juxtaposing images. But I’ve since […]

Another Heart Breaks & Other Art
Another Heart Breaks, paper collage, 2022 As a general rule, I am not good at titling artwork. Poetry is easy: the title seems to happen organically (most of the time). But with regard to collage art…forget it. Unless a phrase or concept arrives in my mind while I’m creating–which almost never happens–I typically resort to […]

The Jungle
The Jungle, collage on vintage postcard, 2022 Man strives toward reason only so that he can make rules for himself. Life itself has no rules. That is its mystery and its unknown law. What you call knowledge is an attempt to impose something comprehensible on life. C. G. Jung As you may know, I don’t […]

On the Bright Side & Other Art
On the Bright Side, paper collage, 2022 Here is a new batch of “inner landscapes”. As you can probably tell from the plethora of cacti in these pieces, I am still working with a lot of vintage Arizona Highways magazines. They’re so much fun.

Life of Objects: A Collection
Life of Objects No. 1, paper collage, 2022 I was recently gifted a copy of the periodical, The Gentlewoman, from May 1903 (many thanks to Katie from The Brass Grasshopper). It is, by far, the oldest source material I’ve worked with to date. Indeed, the paper is so flimsy that I have to remind to […]
