Portfolio > There Are No Wasted Days

These mixed media collages were made between June and August 2020 and are all 7" x 10". I approached this series as open and free as possible. Like the other collages I make, they include all sorts of materials, duct tape, sequins, stickers, miscellaneous papers, ephemera, etc.and are very reflective of the time I made them, (looking at you covid19)...
