HELLO EVERYONE!
Back in March I was deep in prep to launch collage workshops out of my home... well, we all know what happened. So, I have been quiet. But I have been busy. I've been making collages every day since April 7th when the 100 # Project 2020 started. I didn't stop. I have posted 238 days of collages thus far. If you would like to check out my work, please follow me over on Instagram. I'll drop the link in the comments.

I hope you are doing well and staying sane!
I most likely won't launch workshops until 2022 when I know we can do it safely. All the best to you and yours during this last month of 2020. Cheers!

Hello. So, I am doing , however, I changed the idea. I will still be using all the lovely photos you provided for a collage project but I decided making one of those a day was too much and I didn't want to rush. That will be a side project. 😁
What I am creating are non-committal collages. Checkout my IG account and please follow me. Thanks!

Please Read. Crowdsourcing for an ART PROJECT!

Hello. I haven't shared a lot because life was crazy and well now, pandemic. Collage workshops are on hold for a long time. But I thought I would share a little about me.

I am a mixed/multi media artist, but my favorite is collage. Besides my workshops, I haven't made collages in awhile. But I want to start creating them everyday.

You see, I've been creating everyday since September 22nd. I mostly create in my sketchbook exploring my supplies and combining them in interesting ways. I've learned a lot. But I haven't made very many collages which is I find weird. This morning in the shower, I had an idea. I want to make collages of YOUR photos. Just an interesting random photo you took. The 100 Day Project is starting on April 7th. I've not participated before but seeing I am already on day 186 of my own daily practice, I think I can do The 100 Day Project. And, I want to create these collages as my 100 Day Project.

If you would like to submit a photo just post it below in the comments. Please only ONE photo per person and please just post the photo, NO WORDS. I will then interpret your photo in collage form. I may use the whole photo or just a section. When I post my image, I will also post your photo, giving you credit, of course. Who's In??

Thanks for reading this far. I hope you and your loved ones are staying safe and healthy. Cheers!

HELLO! I have not fallen off the face of the earth. It's hard to manage all that I do in a day. I will be in touch with those who have attended a workshop. I have questions! THANKS!
