I would love to hear from you! But always remember what my grandma used to say, "if you have nothing good to say......zip it!"
This webpage is a personal work of art and heart so I hope you enjoyed it enormously. Had as much fun as I did making it!
On Collages and Copyright
Okay, okay, some of the images I used for the collages are not mine. I got them from magazines, junk mail, catalogs and from the Internet. I am not claiming each singular image as mine. What is mine is the over-all image, the total picture. What Is mine is how I put these disparate single images, cast-offs, found items, together to show my personal sense of style.
Do you have a problem with that? You think I stole your work? I infringed on your copyright?
CHILL, LIFE IS TOO SHORT!
If you think I used your image just e-mail me and I will acknowledge you on this website. Fair enough? I am a single mother with three children and an aging mother to take care of. I suffer from four life-threatening illnesses. I have a full time job. I m a road warrior Ð a commuter who drives 130 miles every day, through the Bay Bridge, the Carquinez Bridge and I-80, one of the worst , most congested highways in the nation (one of the most beautiful views in the world, though) . If I have the time I will but alas I have no time to call each and every person to ask permission if I can use that image. Plus some of the images have been collected over a period of time, which makes it next to impossible to trace back their origins.
Please do not sue me right away or unleash a barrage of lawyers on me. My life is already brimming with enough sturm and drang. Thanks for understanding. If you d like a great philosophical discussion about collages and the use of found objects in art, read Gia Bianchi s website.
Thanks for visiting! Hope you had a visually memorable experience.
