Great collages (remind me of Schwitters) and drawings (I like those fragile lines)!

But maybe it is the fragility of the materials that is appealing. Using discarded materials that only have a temporary life-time. I think the dents add to the character of works. But it doesn't help though for exhibiting purposes or for buyers perhaps.

I suppose you are right Richard. On some of them I use varnish and a matt varnish spray. Do you have the same problem with your collages?

Hey! Thanke you so muck.. .

Greetings Richard. Look forward to chatting soon.

I love your work and it inspired me for new projects, Thanks

Thanks for your comments. After i left my comment, i really hoped you wouldn't construe my use of the word 'simple' as an offence to your work or ideas, sometimes those are the best ideas. I started working with paper initially due to it's affordability but it's now inseparable from my work and I work on paper as a preference, I wondered if it was a similar situation with your use of recycled packaging?

Hi Richard,

I really like your works, so simple an idea yet executed brilliantly, they work really well, keep in touch, let me know if you're showing in Scotland any time.
