Collage, personal work.

A series of spring themed collages made using an old Better Homes and Gardens gardening reference book, and other vintage materials. It is another experiment using folded paper as a design element, and works as a great contrast to the green background.

A sophisticated collage series about mental illness, specifically from the view of the loved ones of sufferers. A challenging personal project, a topic I wanted to handle "delicately," which is what inspired the paper folds.

This mixed media collage series was inspired by a pair of scrapbooks found at the St. Lawrence antique market filled with newspaper clippings of Queen Elizabeth and her family during the 1950's and 60's.

Submission in the It could be me, but it's actually Paul Paper project, curated by none other than Paul Paper. The project features interpretations on this theme from artists and illustrators from around the world.

A post card series using small scraps of paper and partial quotes from vintage books. They are all about creating a sentimental feeling or thought for the viewer with very little already implied.

These were inspired by a book I picked up called "Gardening" from 1926, which was handbound by some individual. Inside, I used the eight colour plates of florals to create a small series of eight collages. The idea came from the book "language of flowers" which was one of my favourites.

Altered collage book (originally a book about influenzas for children) turned moustache reference book. Just a silly little creation showing I haven't lost my sense of humour. Descriptive words were drawn from a thesaurus in an aim to describe the "look" of the moustache.
