Collages

These are some of my collages for the Enormous Tiny Art show at the Nahcotta Gallery in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, which opens September 4th. I love working with collage and paint together. I usually include old photographs or use vintage postcards as a starting point for small collages like these, but this time I started with putting color on 8x8 stretched canvas. Then I added drawing. I'm doing more abstract drawing lately, but I usually end up making even that into something figural. I am always tryilng to convey gesture.
