I do not edition prints. All my prints are unique monotypes
or collotypes embellished with hand work in mixed media.
To see more unique prints, go to the catalog page.
I was inspired to create the Collective Unconscious Series
when I learned about early Hawaiian peoples who believed
that kites could deliver messages to the gods in the skies.
The kite is the messenger. The kite tails are the message.
Each work in the Collective Unconscious Series is a unique
collotype embellished with wax, paint, pen and ink and collage.
Kites date back to China at least 3000 years ago and were
flown as a prayer to ensure a good harvest, as thanksgiving,
and/or as a charm against illness and bad luck. Buddhist
monks probably brought kites to Japan from China and Korea
1500 years ago.
