STATEMENT

My collage work utilizes photographs and artwork from a variety of sources, primarily magazines, and encompasses a wide range of subjects. As a member of an artists’ trading-card club, my collages often reflect seasonal themes or monthly prompts chosen by the group.

BIO

I have been photo-collaging since the late 1960s when in true hippie style, I and my tribe would do whole-wall collages. I made a “neurotarot” deck of cards in the early 1990s that I use for divination. I live in the Denver, Colorado metro area and am a member of the Denver Artist Trading Card group, which the oldest in the U.S. My primary artcard medium is collage and I have “pioneered” a form that we call the “9-panel” which will be explained visually below.
