Special Consideration: This book of collages was an award winner in the Open Call titled "Finding Love and Transformation in a Book of Collage, 2021. It features 56 individual collages.
Spotted in the Scottish woods and adopted in my studio, these magic carpets had seen enough of the sky and enough of the ground, to lay forgotten and undisturbed. So I gathered them like one would thoughts and precious stones.
These cracked, aged and beautifully imperfect clays are my unique vessels and, as they say, no two are the same.
Hand collaged, occasionally waxed or embellished, still very light and earthly.
Two original analog collages on clay pigeons found during a nature walk in the Scottish woods. Most of my clays are black/grey, but occasionally I’m blessed by a hint of colour. These special edition clays are orange.
