3 collages, mostly playing with oil pastels, watercolors, dual brush pen & editing

<a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/l_ ... P0MY"><img src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_GujzL1vL7vE/SQX28 ... 5.jpg"></a>

<a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/DD ... P0MY"><img src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_GujzL1vL7vE/SOtlB ... 3.jpg"></a>

the next two are mainly the layering of words and images

<a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/Fc ... P0MY"><img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_GujzL1vL7vE/SPo38 ... 2.jpg"></a>

and the last one is one of my typical happy paintings

MJ, your art/word collages take me places of fantasy and life. The longing for happiness is reflected with brilliant colors and words which grab me and hold me. Ultimately I see deep optimism surging through your work. Your artistic skills shine bright my friend. Keep on creating. A hungry worlds needs artists and poets such as yourself.
