Collage Workshop



This is my first attempt at collage in many years. The photo is of my aunt and uncle upon their engagement. She looks so determined and confident. He looks happy. He knows he made a good catch. I don't know what their life was like on a daily basis, but I know he brought her coffee in bed each morning and called her "young lady" all their married life. I think they were very devoted to each other. She never remarried after he passed away.






This is a collage of my trip to Santa Fe, New Mexico this past summer. The colors of the buildings were bright and vivid yet the atmosphere was relaxed and easy going. You just wanted to enjoy setting on a park bench and watching the world go by. The sounds, colors, smells created a sense of happiness and calm.

The Artist' Palette: Welcome to the Artist Palette

The Artist' Palette: Welcome to the Artist Palette

I'm not sure how this works.

Welcome to the Artist Palette

Welcome to my blog. This is a new venture for me, so please be patient. I hope to give you insight into my thoughts, ideas, and musings. Over the next few weeks I'll upload photos of my paintings as well as give you some of my thoughts.
