About Me
As the world as we know it seems to get torn to bits, I have turned to expressing myself in the art of collage. As a book writer, scriptwriter, movie reviewer, and copywriter with over 30 years experience working free-lance for mostly high tech companies, I used to say, "If I could be a visual artist, I would never write again."
But since taking up collage, I find I like to do both. My urge to make art from bits of this and that was born early. I remember being attracted to mosaics, thanks to an art project I did at Hartford Avenue School in Milwaukee, WI. That interest was revived when my family and I lived in Egypt for five years and we had the chance to explore recently discovered Coptic tombs in Alexandria where the mosaics of the deceased were haunting.
But it wasn't until decades later that I decided to listen to that small voice within that had been saying 'make collages' for most of my life. I spent two years taking collage classes from a wonderful teacher, Larry Calkins at the Kirkland Art Center in Kirkland, WA. The first year, I did nothing much but cut up magazine pages and sort the images. Then creative lightning struck and my rabbit picture resulted.
From then on, I've been working on ideas and responding to images in my head and in real life.
I hope you like what you see here. I plan to add new pieces over time.
Thanks for stopping by. And don't wait as long as I did to listen to that voice inside!
Warmly,
Luanne Brown
