This mixed media collage is where paper, paint, and found textures meet in a single, expressive piece. I build each layer by hand, tearing, arranging, and painting until the composition feels both spontaneous and intentional. Tiny details and overlapping shapes invite you to stand close and explore. On a wall, the collage brings depth and personality to spaces that need something more unexpected than a traditional painting. It works especially well above a reading chair, in a hallway, or tucked into a gallery wall with other artwork from Carman Deneen Studio.
