working

Recently my large transfers are moving from a simple layering of the image multiple times to layering different images over one another creating a previously unimagined composition. Creating what I have so lovingly dubbed “Photo mash-ups” I work from original 35mm, medium format images and combined them for a desired layered depth. 

I have endless drafts on scraps of paper, fabric and cardboard that clutter everything. With the help of endless prodding from my husband I have decided to find some way to provide them for purchase.

Going back to process, I am discovering that the use of found materials is really where I want to continue to explore. I reframe from buying prepared substrates and rely on my ability to scavenge what I can. The different surfaces provide unique textures and contribute to the over all composition of the final object.
