Original artwork description:

My collages are made from original monoprints, other printed material, and sometimes textile fragments. The acrylic monoprints I make in batches without any idea of what they may be used for. Some (not very many) are kept in tact to be framed. Others are cut or torn in a random manner or pre-defined way and reassembled to form an image, which is generally semi-abstract. All of my work is highly coloured and the images start with a colour or shape of an object. The composition is not defined at the beginning but arises organically as I work. The process is quite time consuming. Papers are glued to the support and the finished work is varnished and float mounted on a white background. It is framed in a narrow white (unglazed frame).
