About my collages and paintings

The disclaimer at the beginning of a novel reads; this is a purely fictional

Novel, names, characters, places and incidents are the product of the authors

Imaging any resemblance to actual persons is entirely circumstantial

This declaimer applies to my collages and paintings

I am intentionally avoiding historical, traditional values and past personal
experiences, relying solely on my imagination at the moment of being seduced by

the opportunity, the materials and the empty surface, to create a wholly new visual entity.

working mostly with existing elements I assemble same seeking the line, shape or texture

that divide or unite to become the surprise of a

totally new experience, dictated by the given moment.

The similarity and connection one might perceive between the various works

Is the result of a shared moment in time .
