An image speaks to you and off you go. The dress on the left showed up, so a figure she became with twigs for hair; just seemed appropriate. Most collage begin with a key figure, often prompted by a feeling or idea. My 'anonymous content' collages, gather figures which then find their own relationship, no specified 'meaning' or story told. I find it an interesting way to work and they never emerge by plan, just 'show up' with that beginning image.

Crows are one of my continuing themes. And they share a quality with the Anonymous Content collages, in that there is usually not a specific meaning but rather, an expression of the mysteriousness of Crows. In nature, an extraordinarily clever bird, Crow is found in many traditions, myths and lore as a mystic being. Here our Crow Women hold a knowingness we have yet to uncover.

After a lively philosophical conversation with our young friend Gabriel, he rather spontaneously created a Mind Map; which of course, led to still more conversation. His map took me on this collage journey.
