X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p><strong>Artist's Statement</strong> <br />
 After years of working in pastel and acrylic\, I now work primarily in col
 lage. These works are composed of paper and fabric with a few enhanced by 
 acrylic paint. A few also have mosaic embellishments. This medium has allo
 wed me to escape my tendency to be too detailed and to explore a more emot
 ional and tactile dimension of a wide variety of subjects. The unlimited a
 vailability of fabrics and paper is exciting and has significantly enhance
 d my personal creativity and challenges the limits of my imagination. Howe
 ver\, more recently I&rsquo\;ve moved towards alternating collage with wat
 ercolor and ink paintings and graphite drawings\, primarily to keep my dra
 wing and painting skills fresh. This show features some of these works alo
 ng with both chalk and oil pastel.</p>\n<p>Art Education: Pennsylvania Aca
