Product Description

Assemblage is an area that relaxes me like no other art medium…

Sometimes I like working with a neutral palette – and the idea of “wabi-sabi” that brings a tranquility to my artistic heart…Wabi-Sabi is a Japanese aesthetic, identifying the “way of life” that embraces the beauty of the worn, the long cared for, re-used, re-cycled, re-membered things and celebrates the simplicity of such.
