Original artwork description:

My collages are made from original monoprints, other printed material, newspapers and sometimes textile fragments. I make the monoprints in batches without any idea of what they may be used for. I sometimes start with an acrylic underpainting and then cut or tear the monoprints selected into either defined or random shapes. These are then used to make an image on paper or board, usually semi-abstract. Sometimes I have a loose idea of the subject but the composition is mostly undefined at the beginning and arises organically as I work with various prints and papers. This collage was made in response to an exhibition theme of black and white. It is supplied in an off white mount, ready for framing.

Materials used:

Acrylic Paint, Paper, Mountboard
