These collage pieces are made from several photos. I usually blend a minimum of 8 photos to create 1 scene. Often it may take me 15 to 30 separate photos to create 1 picture. I stated creating these pieces in 2001, something to do to relax, this was before I learned to paint. it was a good way to bring ideas, daydreams and vision to life. I have files filled with 1000's of photo's I've taken of people and things from all over the world that I use to create these pieces. Friends often send me photo files to add to my collection. So if you see me out taking photos of leaves, gravel, or some strangers shoes...
