Mixed Media Volume 04 brings together lush botanical and still life imagery — peonies, roses, grapes, and blossoms — layered over original hand-crafted backgrounds. Vintage postmarks, sheet music, handwritten letters, and Victorian typography drift beneath cascading florals, creating pieces that feel like love letters discovered in an old trunk. Original digital collage art featuring AI-sourced floral imagery.
Mixed Media - Volume 04, No. 01Blush peonies, cream roses, and golden blooms drift across a richly layered background of vintage American postage stamps, postal markings, and decorative scrollwork in this original digital collage. Postmarks from New York and San Francisco, a six-pointed star badge, and fragments of lace-like damask patterns weave through the composition, giving it the feeling of a well-traveled letter finally come to rest. The floral elements are AI-sourced, selected and arranged by the artist over an original hand-crafted background. Available on a wide range of print-on-demand products through Redbubble and Zazzle.
Mixed Media - Volume 04, No. 02 Cascading grapes, blossoms, and abundant fruit spill downward in the tradition of Dutch Golden Age still life painting, layered over an original background of vintage sheet music, handwritten script, Victorian newspaper columns, and ornate scrollwork. A ghostly butterfly hovers at the top of the composition, and fragments of treble clefs and ink splatters add a musical undercurrent to the piece. The result feels like something discovered between the pages of an old music book — abundant, unhurried, and richly detailed. The floral and fruit elements are AI-sourced, selected and arranged by the artist over an original hand-crafted background. Available on a wide range of print-on-demand products through Redbubble and Zazzle.
Mixed Media - Volume 04, No. 03 Soft pink and coral roses bloom through a darkened, moody background layered with vintage sheet music, Victorian newspaper columns, parcel post markings, and an antique alphabet primer. The overall palette leans deeper and more shadowed than others in the collection, giving the florals a dramatic, candlelit quality — as though the blooms are pushing through the weight of old paper and forgotten ink. Ornate iron scrollwork anchors the corners, and faint coin stamps and treble clefs surface between the petals like memories between the lines of an old song. The floral elements are AI-sourced, selected and arranged by the artist over an original hand-crafted background. Available on a wide range of print-on-demand products through Redbubble and Zazzle.
Mixed Media - Volume 04, No. 04 Soft peach and cream peonies cascade across an original background layered with vintage postcards, handwritten correspondence, checklist forms, and delicate scrollwork in this richly textured digital collage. A pocket watch face peers through the blooms, adding a quiet note of time passing, while binder clips, ornate iron frames, and fragments of Victorian typography anchor the composition in a world of cherished and well-worn things. Of all the pieces in this volume, this one feels most like opening a drawer that hasn't been touched in decades — fragrant, unhurried, and full of small discoveries. The floral elements are AI-sourced, selected and arranged by the artist over an original hand-crafted background. Available on a wide range of print-on-demand products through Redbubble and Zazzle.
Mixed Media - Volume 04, No. 05 Cascading clusters of grapes in blush, green, gold, and rose tumble through this richly layered digital collage, evoking the abundance of a harvest still life against an original background of commercial stamp typography, vintage calendar forms, and navigator star badges. The layered Temu stamps beneath the fruit give the piece a mercantile quality — as though this bounty has just arrived from somewhere far away, documentation still attached. The earthy olive and sage palette gives this piece a warmth distinct from the rest of the volume, grounded and autumnal rather than delicate. The fruit and floral elements are AI-sourced, selected and arranged by the artist over an original hand-crafted background. Available on a wide range of print-on-demand products through Redbubble and Zazzle.
Mixed Media - Volume 04, No. 06 Cream and blush peonies, dahlias, and garden roses bloom within an elegant oval cameo frame — formed by the artist's own original banner elements — against a background of layered commercial stamps, weekly planner forms, and fragments of literary text. Phrases surface through the florals like half-remembered lines: "The raven and other poems," "where there is light there is shadow," and a glimpse of a 1932 stamp anchor the piece in a world of quiet reading and afternoon light. A weekly schedule grid along the left edge and a small illustration of stacked books at the lower left add a gentle domestic intimacy to the composition. The floral elements are AI-sourced, selected and arranged by the artist over an original hand-crafted background with original banner framing. Available on a wide range of print-on-demand products through Redbubble and Zazzle.
Mixed Media - Volume 04, No. 07 Vivid coral, pink, and cream peonies and apple blossoms form a lush wreath at the center of this spirited digital collage, the most boldly colored piece in the volume. The artist's own original banner elements and delicate line illustrations weave through the florals, while a background of layered Temu commercial stamps — fragments of newspaper columns, Victorian typography, and the recurring phrase "the world before us a postcard, and imagine the story we are writing" — grounds the composition in familiar vintage territory. Where earlier pieces in this volume lean soft and nostalgic, this one arrives with confidence, its wreath shape giving it the feeling of a celebration or a welcome. The floral elements are AI-sourced, selected and arranged by the artist over an original hand-crafted background with original banner and illustration elements. Available on a wide range of print-on-demand products through Redbubble and Zazzle.
