     These can be old maps, dates, stamps, song sheets, historical text & other paper ephemera to make artwork that draws the viewer in and immerses them in both the history and beauty of the image.

Biography

As a collage artist I specialise in creating unique pictures of buildings and landscapes.

 Before I individually handmake each picture in my home studio, I spend a period of time researching the subject to discover interesting information that is unique to the image.

 I then source a variety of collage materials to use in the artwork that reflects my findings.

 These can be old maps, dates, stamps, song sheets, historical text & other paper ephemera to make artwork that draws the viewer in and immerses them in both the history and beauty of the image.
