I realize how crazy this “faux poste” card is, but there’s something about it I like. It consists of postage stamps from my collection, hand-painted papers, illegible text, and six fishes all lined up that I got from a botanical print published in 1771. Colorful circles and tropical prints add to the background.

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.
