Collect. Cut. Color.

** Cardboard **
Artwork Picture Frames



These are a work in progress... and I am happy to where these are heading.


 With feel good textures, all drenched with paint and vivid colors!


An invite for these ladies, who could resist.


Edited original paintings. Printed in black and white.
Each one...
will find their meaning, a place of her own, and wired to the frame. 


Tell me... 
have I changed your perception on cardboard?

Be inspired. Make Art.

    1. Hi Donnalee!
      Simply cut, tear, peel back... Any sharp tool will do.
