🍷 Enjoy the w**e bar J. Petter Galleries while taking in all the amazing artwork at the Gallery Stroll on 9/12. I’ll be there to answer questions and explain my process for creating work inspired by the gorgeous Lake Michigan.

A treasured landscape on the left, rebuilt entirely from photos of dumpster walls on the right. 🗑️✨ Swipe to see the dumpster walls that were used to recreate this image featuring Saugatuck, Michigan.

No AI prompts. Just raw Photoshop compositing used to explore the heavy reality of human consumption and waste on the environments we love.

🗓️ This piece will be coming to J. Petter Galleries on the Art Coast of Michigan on September 12th. Hope to see you there!

I could fill an entire gallery with work inspired by the textures and colors found in Yellowstone National Park.

These are the last two pieces left from my first collection of Yellowstone pieces. Both are available .

12x9 original collages incorporate handmade and naturally dyed papers, textiles, and my original photographs of the landscapes.

New series coming soon featuring views of Lake Michigan.

Found quilted fabric combined with handmade papers and leftover threads create grassy sand dunes.

Silk textiles combined with photographs of the lake printed on metallic archival papers, create a sea of shimmering blues and greens.

Handmade papers dyed with Indigo create textured soft blue skies.

Original handmade collages. Coming soon.

Q: Why do you use handmade papers, natural dyes, and textiles?

A: When organic waste (food, paper, textiles, plant waste) is buried in landfills and deprived of oxygen, it produces methane gas.

Q: What’s wrong with methane gas?

A: Over a 20-year timeframe, methane’s global warming potential is 80–87 times greater than
carbon dioxide.

In ZION National Park we hiked the Narrows, walking through water in-between towering cream, pink, and red sandstone walls. I loved the way the walls looked against the blue sky. This photographic composite explores the towering walls against blue skies. It was created by compositing bits and pieces of photographs featuring dumpster walls.

Emerald Pools was another favorite hike, depicted in this collage created using papers and fabrics dyed with spinach, black beans, avocados, and rose petals. I loved the purplish hues of the rocks against the green leaves, and the reflection captured in the water.

Both pieces are available .

Over the last few weeks I have been lucky enough to visit White Sands NP, Abiquiu, New Mexico, Bandelier NM, and Yosemite NP.

Absolutely stunning and breathtaking landscapes - and all so different and unique in their own way.

White sand dunes against pastel sunsets. Pink textured hills and ochre rock formations set against Santa Fe’s blue sky. Spring in Yosemite is marked by powerful waterfalls, rich greens, and rainbows set against monster rock formations.

So many inspiring colors and textures, I can’t wait to get back in the studio.
