The collage continues

It's that theme again that keeps coming back. Inks, wax, string, bark, leaves, hand-made papers. Basically from a huge collection of natural, man-made and printed ephemera.

Growing up in Spain, absorbing the power of red and gold , - blood and candlelight.

Holy Week processions: white doves, crowds, bells, candles, incense, trumpets, wailing, swaying, death, resurrection, hope.

The iconic, Catholic, occasionally OTT kitsch imagery has been an inspiration for over 40 years. Ingrained.
