Mixed Media

Portfolio 2005 (20″ x 24″)

This fibre art collage forms the cover of a portfolio containing photographs of mixed media, watercolours, and encaustic works, as well as some of the architectural drawings that are featured elsewhere on this website.

Forbidden 2004 (4″ x 6″)

This collage, as well as the one pictured below, were both completed after I took a week-long workshop at Hollyhock with Nick Bantock in 2003.

Dare to Repair 2003 (5″ x 7″)

I stared working on this collage when I was in the workshop with Nick Bantock, and completed it a few months later. Fans of Bantock’s work will recognize some of the items that feature in his collages, such as the postage stamp in the middle of the piece.

Child 2006 (16″ x 20″)

This encaustic work started out as a self-portrait. As I was creating the work, I realized it looked more like my then five-year-old daughter might look, three or four years into the future. Sure enough, when she turned eight, her hair was this length, and there was something in her countenance that matched the mood of the piece.
