European
Collages, all
approx. 2.3”x4” each, mixed media on board 1997
As I continue to
organize and archive I came across these forgotten treasures. I started making small mixed media
collages long before the 2011 Project.
This series of 12 geographic, travel themed pieces were done in
1997. Each was for a different
European country. I printed these
images and used them in handmade magnets.
Nowadays printing technology has improved and become less
expensive. I see cool artists
magnets at shows and craft fairs all the time. Back in 1998, I sold about 25 of the magnets in a
small shop in the Richmond. If you
have one, hang on to it — it’s a collector’s item.
As far as my current work,
one could say its come full circle, as I am working on a series of
travel-themed work for an installation later this year.
