Collagescapes
Collage + Landscape = Collagescape
With collagescapes, I start by painting paper with areas of color representing the palette of a specific place. Next I cut up the paper into hundreds of small pieces. The final steps are to randomize the pieces and then reassemble them in various geometric patterns. Collagescapes are both landscape paintings and collages. They may appear abstract, but the intent is to retain the color palette of the places they represent.
