I build carefully crafted art from very common materials like paper, corks, cardboard and bits of soft metal.
I make a range of things in my garage studio, from furniture consignments to installations to fine art. I construct paintings using unexpected combinations of paper. I build small landscapes from mat board and cardboard. I make small figures, called 'Corkers' out of wine and champagne corks. I keep worms in the backyard and sometimes I will put art failures in the worm bin for the worms to digest. They do not seem to mind. :)
