Art Sale


As you may know I've been taking a small break from my daily collage project. I have been preparing for a move to Madison, Wisconsin to attend graduate school, where I'll be pursuing an M.F.A. in printmaking. I'm looking forward to seeing the direction my work will take in the next few short years. I will continue to post my daily collages after my move, so be on the lookout for new work in August.

In the meantime I will be posting larger mixed-media collages to my website rplowman.com Most of the work here will be larger collages that are framed. Please check back for new updates.

You can also check out my latest book, Masters: Collage by Lark Press. It features the work of forty collage artist working in a variety of styles and mediums from traditional cut-and-paste to digital to mixed media work using paint and encaustic. If you are a fan of collage you'll love this book!

Thanks!
I look forward to posting new work next month.
