"Marie Delex". This is a popular 1887 engraving that goes with a story about a girl snatched by a massive eagle in the French Alps. The image was so intense I wanted to give it a colorful background with paint and handmade papers. #collage #traditionalart #eagle #fantasy #surrealism #victorian

I love this! My Pop was a general contractor. I would use those caps for electrical wires as Barbie doll cups 😆. And loved the Keychain of formica counter samples.

Thanks! Very nice. I will have to look at capacitors. Funny, while bidding on these on ebay I try to go by watt size to get the right length size. Doesn't always work though 😀 . 1 or 1/2 watt usually works.

My bedroom walls when I was 14 years old in the 1970s. Mostly cut outs from underground newspapers I found in the trash behind a girls home. I was destined to be a collage artist!

Good morning. Happy new week. This is a detail of the 3rd painting I did after the flood.
Detail from “Holding Light” ©️2024 by Raphaella Vaisseau, acrylic 18x24

Abstract detail of floral painting by Raphaella Vaisseau with baby blue background, green stems, and blossoms of lavender, rose, red, and golden yellow rising from lower left to upper right as if on a windy day. The whole painting is called Holding Light and has a mirror image on the right of painting as if the flowers are holding light for recovery from Hurricane Helene’s devastation in Asheville where I live.

Thanks! It sold within a day of listing it which was a nice surprise. There are great collage artists that "paint" with paper with amazing detail. My drawing skills are not so good. I wing it!

Cathy Horner @cathorner.bsky.social · Mar 1

"Autumnal Sun" this is the only collage I have made this way. All little bits of cut paper. I want to try this again. #collage #analog #collageart #fantasy #surrealism #cathyhorner #mixmedia #traditionalart #landscape

I a noticed wizard of oz reference in your paintings

Jack, wow, what a fascinating story. I was already becoming a fan of your art. I think you are genius. I love that you made this documentary. It's not very often we get to know the person creating art and so much of yourself is in your work. Beautiful. I was intrigued by your gf's paper dress.

A film was made by Jason King about my Strange & Sometimes Troubled Memories series of work.
It's quite cringy to put myself out there as it's such personal themes. Viewer discretion advised.
