New work


Approaching Stillness
I've been hard at work on a new series of collage pieces on cradled boards. I've been using the panels from American Easel and find that this surface suits my way. I protected the edge with a layer of blue tape while building the collage on the surface, and when I was done I removed the tape and finished the cradle with a light sanding and a couple of layers of cold wax which I used on the surface as well.

    This is beautiful. I bet the cold wax gives it all a wonderful look

      Thanks Bren. I like the glow AND the smell.

    Beautiful work. How did you get the swiss-cheesy effect in the middle?
