As an avid crafter and self-taught artist, I was immediately drawn to mixed media collage work. I use a mixture of acrylic paints, scrapbook papers and ephemera to create vintage pieces that evoke feelings from the past. I use Faber-Castell Artist Markers, a permanent India ink medium, to paint the primary subjects. I use decoupage media to adhere my collection of ephemera along with quotes or text.
I am inspired by costume designers and vintage sewing patterns from various eras and the vast collections of scrapbook papers ephemera available. The possibilities seem endless.
