Part of a collage on an envelope I made. I used postage stamps, old Japanese papers, ink, paint, a signature “chop” or “hanko,” and more on the entire envelope. I particularly liked this section of the envelope, and so am offering it for sale here on Fine Art America.

The blue stamp was issued in 1952 and depicts the Yomei Gate in Nikko City. The brown stamp was issued around 1947 and depicts a carved Noh mask.

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.
