Collage and Assemblage

Works created with paper and made or found objects including Artist books, construction, encaustic embedding, deconstructed books, and three dimensional objects.  I have been inspired by Joseph Cornell, Picasso and surrealism.  The idea of assembling parts into a cohesive whole is very powerful on many levels.  There is always an element of surprise when it works.
