" Red Birds "

My current work is hand printed paper collage on canvas. My ideas come from fleeting glimpses of streets and buildings and faces as well as from movie scenes and conversations and dreams.
The process of collage is very fluid and links closely to my use of clay in earlier years. I enjoy the tactile component of collage and its textural nature.
