Take Me to the Mountains:
I spent all of my memorable life searching for a something that was found somewhere in the Rocky Mountains, during a magical week in May, 2021…
A much needed respite introduced me to the Rocky Mountains, seen in person for the first time, during that very tender week of awe. There was a certainty in knowing that there was no need to search again. All was found, and love for life was felt in every beating cell.
The resulting series of 12” x 12” collages were intentionally left just as tender, leaving hints of all processes exposed: bare gesso, pencil sketches, layers of ink transfer, and then finally layers of traditional collage methods. I wanted to imitate that feeling of a precious photograph kept in a drawer, slightly blemished over time, after years of revisiting the good times again and again. I have always been prematurely nostalgic.
Enlarged archival proofs were printed to be displayed alongside the originals, emphasizing patterns and textures. Custom prints can be ordered by request.
Unless otherwise noted, originals are ready to hang in walnut floater frames.
