Orientation
In May of 2008, I began a series of collages in the form of greeting cards as part of my aim to investigate the nature of being a human. I intended to only continue this project for a year but it found an irreplacable position in my personal process and in the hearts of some of my fans...and so it continues.
The cards capture different aspects of human emotion, points of view and stages of relationships. Some of these aspects so fleeting we would never recall them on own unless probed and others as deep-rooted and continually present in our being that they our existence aches with them. Roughly I have three categories that cards fall into; Matters of the Heart, Listen to Me, and Occasions. Matters of the Heart covers love, compliments, gratitude, sympathies, comfort and courting. Listen to Me covers advice, reflections and opinions. Occasions covers holidays, events and stages. Enjoy.

A collection of cards about that special someone

Some other earlier cards circa my first few years creating these
i found a lot to be said via parachutes and jumping out of things
then of course it was only natural to move into snakes
and eskimos
then i learned i could make cards for myself from other people. this was from my grandfather to me.
