Red

While sorting through some papers, I finally located a group of collages from an Abstract Painting class from Metairie Park Country Day's "The Colony." This is one of eight collages I made under the instruction by Karen Stasny.

Contact Paper Paintings

Two years ago I made this in a Chris Guarisco "Techniques Workshop" during "The Colony" at Metairie Park Country Day. It was a couple of weeks before Hurricane Katrina.

Creative Spirit

This is a collage based on an experience. A month before creating this, I had taken a class on creativity. The piece contains artifacts from the class: illustrations, documentation, copied pages from journals and so on. I used colored pencil to help unite the elements and add a bit of color. Again this is a piece I completed during a Lory Lockwood "Feminist Art Workshop" at the "The Colony" held by Metairie Park Country Day.

Dualing by Numbers

The same summer I participated in the Lory Lockwook "Feminist Art Workshop," I also took feminist art workshop. For this piece we were shown Ida Kohlmeyer pieces and asked to create our own works based on what she was doing. This is the art I created.
