“scraps”......... an ongoing series
When i first moved to Missoula, 7 years ago, i rented a studio in The Ceretana Building on the north side of town. My studio was not well ventilated, so i decided to make the transition from oil painting on canvas, to works on paper. I started experimenting with graphite, crayons and printing processes. When i finished a series, i found there were often pieces i didn’t like as much as others. Rather than keeping pieces i was not fond of, i decided to use them as collage material. My studio quickly filled with "scraps".
I am very interested in keeping my ecological footprint small, so i carefully collected all the scraps and put them in boxes and drawers.
All the pieces created for “Small Works” are sewn, collaged and glued together scraps from past exhibitions.
