I am a visual artist working in collage, assemblage sculpture and altered books. My practice explores identity, memory and the history of the African diaspora. Vintage and contemporary images collide to convey how the past informs the present.


East, north or south? Take a collage class with me

East, north or south? Take a collage class with me

No time to take a fun class? Depending on where you are and what you need, you and I can pull off the impossible: we can make time for collage this fall.

First option: Sundays at the Kirkland Arts Center. If you live on the Eastside, or you’ve never tried collage before, this is the class for you. From September 18th to November 6th, we’ll experiment with different collage techniques. Registration opened on the 26th, so you can sign up here right now.

Second option: this is the class to sign up for if you’re in the Central District, or if you’re only free for one day. I’ll be teaching a one-day intensive collage class at the Pratt Fine Arts Center on September 24th. Registration will open up in early August.

Third option: if you live further north, good news — I’m also teaching at North Seattle College. This class will be for three Saturdays in a row: November 5th, 12th and 19th. Registration starts on August 8th, so you still have a couple of days left to decide which class to take. But once you do, be quick about signing up — I don’t know how fast the classes will fill up!
