( ALF ) is an ongoing collage series on wood panel, it’s up to about 1200 works in the series.
Pushing clipped images of animals into a dadaist environment. Random colors, words and animals mix
freely (Liberation) in a world turned upside down. Word meanings juxtaposed with the animal image
create possibilities in reflection about the artworks. The series attempts to honor all wild and
domesticated animals. I have strong feelings about all animals beyond humans, I believe they are far
more important and sacred to our earth then the ongoing self-destructive human race.
Process involves, a gathering of thrift store buys of kid’s animal books, scrapped wood paneling, glue
and junkyard acrylic paints. Its classic assemblage methods of gluing image and colors into mysterious
narrative messages. With all materials in front of me, the process is automatic, mixing and matching to
create images I like. I usually make a batch of collage paintings every couple of years, averaging about 60
to 80 paintings per session. These collage series I consider my street art, dirt cheap and available to the
masses, operating outside of the pretentious gallery system.

All paintings are made from 100% recycled materials.
