'Stuff' Portraits

These first portraits have been made in the last few years, as I experiment with different kinds of 'trash' materials I have around the house. But my love of collage goes back nearly twenty years, when I made my first magazine paper collage (the musician trio, based off a sketch). I imagine you can tell what these are made of, but just in case: golf tees, dried paint scraps, food packaging, postage stamps, magazine paper and cardboard.
