COLLAGES
Handmade by
Carol Leigh

Creating digital photomontages has naturally led to my creating physical collages. I use everything, including vintage papers, found objects, metal bits and pieces, postage stamps, handmade papers, envelopes, old books, maps, photographs, fabric, and more to create these one-of-a-kind, unique pieces of art.

Each collage is matted and ready to be framed. The price includes shipping via U.S. Postal Service First Class mail. 

"Raven, Santa Fe #01"
Made with blue, black, and warm brown mulberry paper, rice paper, calligraphy from an 1880s Japanese book on philosophy, acrylic paint, and a raven photomontage, printed on Japanese rice paper. (See below for detail photos of parts of the collage.)

Size: 6½" x 4½" in an 11" x 14" mat, ready to pop into an 11" x 14" frame (not included). Price: $80, which includes First Class Mail shipping. To order, please visit my online store:  http://shop.carolleigh.net


"Red River"
I'm so lucky to receive interesting papers and "things" from fellow artists, students, and friends. Kathleen Amt made the bone-like disks. I got the red disks from North Carolina jewelry artist Nina Bagley. Kathleen Amt also supplied the grey, black, and blue papers. The "red river" effect comes from paper given to me by CJ Middendorf. The strip of paper under the disks is from an 1880s Japanese book. And the dotted paper at the bottom arrived in the mail here a couple of days ago from a supplier in Arizona. Thanks to all of these people, and I hope I'm doing these little gifts justice.
