10th INTERNATIONAL COLLAGE EXHIBITION AND EXCHANGE

"Ocean" (part of a collage series)

I have been making collage since 1980. Collage was my primary gallery work for over 25 years. My production of collage is less now, but my fingers get itchy around this time of the year and this exhibit on the net and in New Zealand is a great destination for sharing small image collage. Please link to the virtual.tart.co.nz website in April to see an amazing array of collage from all over the world and to learn more about how artists are exchanging and selling their work through the vision of artist Dale Copeland in Okato, New Zealand.
