Getting From Here to There.

I have always loved vintage photographs. Their somber faces speak of winding stories of mischief, adventure and turmoil.  I try to imagine how these new friends escaped the dusty confines of their time-honored family albums and wound up in the half price bin at a yard sale. 
  
Other favorite raw materials: well-loved game pieces, ancient letters, maps and curious artifacts. In my studio, surrounded by piles of forgotten treasures, I thank my lucky stars that I possess the super powers of ingenuity and grit, which blur the lines between nostalgia + contemporary, humor + gloom, junk + art.
