About me

I am a Mixed Media Artist,
currently pursuing my interest in paper collage.

I create meaningful, life affirming statement pieces,
exploring my love of collage, mixed media and altered art.

I am probably best known for creating art pieces on a small scale,
such as inchies and playing cards.

My aim is to make living each day a journey of delight,
creating beautiful memories to treasure
& celebrating moments of joy.

Since 2007 I have used this blog as a way to record the details of my creative work
& I use it daily as a place of reference & inspiration.

The following poem perfectly encapsulates my approach to life.

Promise Yourself
by Christian D. Larson

To be so strong that nothing
can disturb your peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness & prosperity
to every person you meet.

To make all your friends feel
that there is something worthwhile in them.
To look at the sunny side of everything
& make your optimism come true.

To think only the best, to work only for the best,
& to expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others
as you are about your own.

To forget the mistakes of the past &
press on to the greater achievements of the future.
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times &
give every living creature you meet a smile.

To give so much time to the improvement of yourself
that you have no time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger,
too strong for fear & too happy to permit the presence of trouble.

To think well of yourself & to proclaim this fact to the world,
not in loud words but great deeds.
To live in faith that the whole world is on your side
so long as you are true to the best that is in you.
