A Couple Recent Collage Exhibitions

The National Collage Society recently (November 4 - December 7, 2019) mounted its Annual Juried Show in the Cummings Gallery at Mercyhurst University in Erie, PA.  I am honored that my collage "Mother" was included:

"Mother"

16"h x 13.75"w

(book & magazine scraps, gold-pigmented wax,

hand-cut lettering, watercolor pencils)

On exhibit locally, is my piece entitled "What Is." as part of Read Between the lines: NWCS and Cancer Lifeline Poets."  The collages in this exhibit were inspired by poems written by writing groups organized by Cancer Lifeline in Seattle.  My piece was inspired by a beautiful poem written by Sylvia Byrne Pollack entitled "Higher Education."

Cancer Lifeline

Lovely Artist Reception last night (with the most incredible pastries!) for the opening of a joint exhibition between Cancer Lifeline and the Northwest Collage Society.  The show features original collage work by members of NWCS created in response to poetry written by participants in Cancer Lifeline's writing program.  You can see my contribution inspired by a poem called "Finding my Identity" written by Allison Totey (below) and other wonderful art and poetry through December 19, 2016, at 6522 Fremont Avenue North in Seattle.
