I have been an artist for more than 20 years, having worked in oils, acrylics, pastel, collage and mixed media. After retiring in 2016, I started experimenting in mixed media and discovering a newfound process of altering discarded magazine pages. I poured an eco-friendly solvent on these pages and watched the ink melt, creating unique textures and patterns. I also manually and digitally manipulated the ink. Ripped pieces of the paper are used to create collage works which are covered in resin to give an ethereal surreal feeling.
I will be showcasing my series "Oceans in Peril". This series highlights the issue of plastics in the oceans and beach garbage. I integrated bits of beach garbage collected during my travels into the design and resin of several collage works.
