Collage has become my obsession! Would these be good cards? Collage has blossomed into a multimedia creative process where my weird humor, political activism, and Riot Girl sensibility come together with color and vintage paper. “This person may be injurious to your mental health.” “You will need nurture.” Watercolor, ink, cut paper from vintage magazines and nature books. #collage #collageart #artjournalpages #artjournalpage #watercolor #multimediaart #artonpaper #brooklynartist #womenartist #womanartistsoninstagram #artistsupportpledge (at Brooklyn, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqAf_0POkpV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Old book pages find new life. Paint, patterns, marks on vintage Midsummer Nights Dream, end pages, and old sci-fi books. Collage is a dream of color, texture, patterns. ✂️ This artist residency is giving me the space and time to spread out, experiment and explore! 📑 #workinprogress #artistsoninstagram #worksonpaper #collage #collageart #vintagebooks #artresidency #watercolor #watercolorpainting #watercolorart #wip #wipart #hiddengems #watercolorprocess #art #gallerywall #collageartist #collageartwork #colorfulart #colorfulartwork #painter #paintersofinstagram (at Galway, Ireland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoMuQd-jDDg/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

“in case of loss, return to yourself…” do you have a sketchbook or art journal practice? ☘️ just arrived to Ireland for a 1-month artist residency, and didn’t realize that the work had begun before I left NYC. 📝 a new multi-media collage practice opened up the creative floodgates & I finally released a block I didn’t know was there. The idea that a sketchbook had to be perfect. 📖 Can’t wait to show you what I’ll be making while here in Galway at @watershedstudios … 👀 📔 @moleskine journal 📓 #artresidency #galwayireland #artwork #artist #artjournal #artjournaling #artjournalpage #junkjournal #junkjournaling #sketchbook #perfectionism #makemistakes #hiddengems #findingmyself #creatrixmethod #multimedia #collageart #growthmindset #artistsupport #artistsoninstagram (at Galway, Ireland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoJsm60ji3q/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Who came up with portions? Do wild animals need a food expert to tell them what to eat? Nope.

My kid, the Platypus

So I'm a graduate of the University of Oregon. My sister attends UofO's biggest rival, Oregon State University. I was a duck. She's a beaver. My 5 year old

son preferred the Beaver pillow pet - but he's happy to be called a platypus.
