Tree's legacy

This is a canvas on which I have collaged images from the legal documents pertaining to the case we are fighting with Spotsylvania County regarding the sewer line being run through our property. I then added images of trees to represent the loss that we will have. The large tree in the center is an ironed on image (T-shirt transfer).

Formerly for angus, now home to weeds

This is an experiment with a new method, bee's wax collage. I first transferred a photograph onto canvas using acrylic medium. I had hand-colored the image before transferring. Then, I colaged other images around it using bee's wax as the glue. Bee's wax lends a really interesting transparency to the images. Finally I transferred a black and white image of the barn on top, and sealed it with bee's wax. Charcoal was rubbed into some areas to add interest to the surface.

Here is my first Linoleum cut experiment. My plan is to mix prints with mixed media transfers this summer. My theme revolves around my garden.

My final movie

This movie is a presentation of the work for the mixed media drawing class that I have just completed. I learned so much during this class, and a lot of it was about technology. Now I know how to blog and post movies!
