bricolage
noun bri\u00b7co\u00b7lage \\ \u02ccbr\u0113-k\u014d-\u02c8l\u00e4zh , \u02ccbri- \\
Something constructed or created from a diverse range of available things.
A term derived from the French verb bricoler (meaning “to putter about”) and related to bricoleur, the French name for a jack-of-all-trades.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Each of my whimsical collages are compilations of many bits of ephemera, vintage postcards, letters, stamps, photos, matchbooks, textbooks, storybooks, field guides, balance sheets, currency, and magazines. Much joy comes from discovering scraps of ephemera in junk, or as I call them, “treasure” shops. Each hold a bit of story from their prior owners. Each act as a guide when I am creating. They combine with other bits and pieces until they tell a new narrative. Many of my collages are created on the pages of a 4\u201dx6\u201d leather bound journal, while some require a bigger field.
I suppose that their creation is my way of tracing uncharted paths, sure that the undiscovered awaits me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are my slivers of story, expressions of emotion, and chance to play. Enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
