I fiddled around with art for about 10 years before finding collage and realizing this was MY medium. They're like hidden pictures for adults; even I get mesmerized by looking for all the gems embedded in the finished works!

I use repurposed paper from innumerable sources - old textbooks, vintage letters, children's books, maps, etc. The large bear below is 4 feet by 4 feet and took me about 40 hours to complete.

I live in the Blue Ridge mountains in Northeast, GA, otherwise known as "The Trout Capital of Georgia."

Art has always been a relaxing hobby of mine until I decided to sell my wildlife collages about a few years ago. So far, I've mostly done wildlife, though I've done landscape and a couple of pets as well. I plan on expanding in time!

RELATED:

    Each collage has thousands of pieces taken from lots of other sources like maps, old vintage books, textbooks, magazines, vintage letters, notes, etc. I can't pass by any bit of paper that I stumble upon without thinking about where I could use it. Every piece reflects some sort of history. Every collage is unique because it's created with different paper pieces and hundreds of individual cuts.

    This one has lots of hidden creatures. There's a lizard in his nose and a wolf right above it, a rabbit in his snout and an owl between his eyes, sort of to the left, there is a loving couple off to the left and an elderly couple sitting at a table towards the right above his eye, a gorilla snout and gorilla eyes placed separately on the left, as well as an upside down hippopotamus, and a trail of men on horseback in his snout and two sets of legs in the background.

    Besides creating collage art, I also write fantasy and non-fiction books for readers of all ages. I've already released some books that you can check out by clicking here if you're interested! "The Worlds Next Door" is my first middle-grade book that I am very excited about. It tells a story about a twelve-year-old, Janie Rutland, that decides to investigate an abandoned house next door and finds something completely unexpected!

    It's hard to pick a favorite. This little about-to-take-flight duck hasn't had anyone talk about his handsomeness. I will happily say, I like the duck, the best! :)

    Really gorgeous work. I would have no idea that this was a collage--all the colours and shapes are so amazingly well-blended.
