We are a husband and wife team that create mixed media works and collages using found vintage items. The idea for our nest collages, in particular, was sparked when Stefan and I discovered a bird’s nest in our backyard. The resourceful bird weaved in a bit of plastic shopping bag and a little silver sliver of screen door material. The lightbulb went off, just copy what the bird’s do! We collect and collage hand torn and cut papers; vintage sheet music, maps, tickets, books, old letters from traveling, and more.

We love this nomadic lifestyle of artists arriving in a new city, setting up a tent full of freshly made work, meeting new people, exchanging stories, sharing a laugh or a hug, and seeing fellow artists who are like family on the road. It is truly a gift to be able to make a living selling our art at outdoor art festivals across the United States.
