This is a simple yet elegant collage featuring a commemorative Japanese postage stamp published in 1991. I used paper scraps left over from another project to create an abstract design that has a definite Japanese vibe. The two pieces of brown paper come from an old shoji screen, used as insulation. The colorful angled element was cut from a piece of paper I had painted.

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.
