Texture, vibrant color, shine, and shadow find their expression with paper, foil, photographs, and bits of whatever is at hand for collage although more akin to what I call sculp-age, informed by my use of clay and mixed media work. Watercolors and pencils on different paper textures, using the effects of water continue my explorations into other media as seen here
In the gallery are examples of the photography collages which inspired the mixed media watercolors next to them.
The swimmers and boat are destined for the Krannert Art Museum at the University of Illinois.
