Wool & Wings (2023)

Found images, vintage graph paper and glue on foam board with glossy stained wood frame

8 1/2" x 8 1/2" x 1 1/2"

 

This one-of-a-kind, handmade collage is part of my FEBRUALLAGE 2023 collection—a set of works created for an international challenge using a daily prompt to create a new collage each day in February. This collage was prompted by the word: WINGS

 

A rainy day collage--made using a central portrait from LIFE magazine and children's books, set on vintage graph paper. The vibrant green wool blanket becomes a lush hillside, dotted with firelit buildings as birds fly past the vibrant sun. 

 

Initialed on the front & signed in signature silver on the back.

 

All collages are made from found and recycled materials—they carry the story of their past (and some materials are very old)! This can mean discoloration, cracks, fading or other imperfections. It’s all part of the process. To maintain the integrity of your art, keep out of direct, sustained sunlight.
