Janice McDonald makes elegant, abstract collages with collected, repurposed papers. She graduated with a BFA from Oregon State University and now splits her time between collage work and a graphic design practice in Denver, Colorado, USA. Her unusual technique is the result of many influences and years of experimentation.
Her work has been included in: "Between the Medium: Seeing Photographically" at RedLine Contemporary Art Center (2017); International Collage Exhibition at Kansas State University; solo shows at Denver's Spark Gallery ("ThroughLines," 2018; "Unboxed," 2016; "Paper Trails, 2015; "Overlooked Artifacts," 2013; "Bounce," 2012 and "Composed," 2011); “Re-Purposed,” at Denver's Edge Gallery in 2009; at Denver International Airport, and in juried exhibitions around the US and internationally.
Janice is a signature member of the National Collage Society and helps moderate an online collage group that is sponsored by the International Museum of Collage, Assemblage, and Construction.
Her artworks find homes with individual collectors, in site-specific commissions, and in corporate collections. Janice's collages are included in the collections of the Adolph Coors Foundation, IMA Financial, CoBank, Beaver Run Resort, Castle Rock Adventist Hospital, Denver Health, Denver Seminary, Aspen Arbor Animal Hospital, and Boulder Community Hospital.
