"Scissor Tales" features the use of collage, but it's collage with a difference. Look at a piece from a distance -- it's a parrot, a cat, a river. From close up, you'll see that I make each piece from several hundred slivers of paper from flower catalogs, furniture brochures, clothing catalogs, and travel magazines. The effect is rather like a photomosaic, and invites the viewer to look again and again.
