"Marie Delex". This is a popular 1887 engraving that goes with a story about a girl snatched by a massive eagle in the French Alps. The image was so intense I wanted to give it a colorful background with paint and handmade papers. #collage #traditionalart #eagle #fantasy #surrealism #victorian

My bedroom walls when I was 14 years old in the 1970s. Mostly cut outs from underground newspapers I found in the trash behind a girls home. I was destined to be a collage artist!

Today's prompt is #rough . When I was going through chemo and radiation I made an altered book of collages about how I was feeling. Here are a few pages. #collage #FebruArty2025 #collageart #fantasy #humor #surrealism #mixmedia #traditionalart #FebruArty #februarty #analog #cancer #vocalcord

Woman looking through a tunnel with blue sky visible at the end

Girls face with cage covering it and a young woman with neck injuries

A head breathing . Trees and fields in the background. In their mind is flowers and morning dove. This is meditation to get through chemo and radiation

I posted a bit ago about making resistor bracelets. I thought I needed cataract surgery, I do but not yet. 😜 I am making bracelets now, soon to be in my etsy shop. I donate a portion to aclu + southern poverty. Here is the card I designed, printing them today. Sent them all over in 2017. #resist
