Background:
I am a Shamanic Practitioner
An initiated Elder
and a crazy assemblage and collage artist.
I made my first art sale at seven years old.
At that time, I could see the energy of trees and painted that energy,
However my teacher didnt understand what I painted and said it was a horrible mess
That ended my art for years.
Fast forward 40 years.
I started playing around with "junk" and making weird "art".
I didn't know what I was doing
I got on the internet and ran into art/altered books and fell in love.
After a few years making the altered books,
I started going back with the "weird" junk art again.
I found out that it was
called assemblage. I have been doing it ever since!
At eighty + years I am still going strong doing assemblage and collage.
