Southwestern Bear Mosaic Canvas Print

This rustic mosaic bear graced a wall in New Mexico. I liked the various blue colors as well as the brown “heart line” or “life line” angling across. The wall didn’t originally look like this; I added a piece of wood, some peeling paint, and texture from the hull of a fishing boat.

I'm a photographer, writer, educator based on Whidbey Island in the Pacific Northwest, specializing in photomontage work, combining photos I've taken of rust, walls, peeling paint, birds, postage stamps, trees, etc. into images that are completely new, different, and often weird. I also create physical collages, then find myself photographing parts of them to include in my photomontages. It's crazy, but it's fun! My career has encompassed writing guidebooks (primarily about where to photograph in California), newsletters (guides for photographers about where to photograph in the United States), leading photo workshops, and conducting online classes.
