The six collages that I have been working to show as a group are ready to hang! I will post on all my socials when they actually make it into the gallery. In any case, they will be on display by Friday May 3, which is the first Brattleboro Gallery Walk of the season – an event well worth attending!

Here are some of my favorites that I don’t have ready to hang and show yet. I’m putting them away now, to await their turn.




Here’s a quick goofy one. The base picture was an arresting image of a fellow in mask and body paint. The feet belong to the nuns that were in day-before-yesterday’s post. The doily and sculpture were to bring the colorway together. Unlike yesterday, I did not then spend a lot of time adding little bits in hopes of making the whole thing more interesting. Part of my challenge is knowing when to quit.

I think maybe I could have stopped when this one was quite simple; it pleased me then. But I started adding more stuff, and ran out of time & energy while it was (is) still in this intermediate, not-quite-resolved state. But I think I’m going to let it go, and leave it where it is.
There are still a couple of pages of ideas waiting to be added to and glued down before this year’s collaging is over.
