\u201cTo me I think artists in general make a statement \u2014 and for the rest of their lives \u2014 every album, every book \u2014 are variations on a theme.\u201d

Here are two examples of my ongoing participation in groups that collaborate through thematic emphasis. Gentle Zephy<\/em>r is a response to the theme of \u201cmusic\u201d at the Collage<\/a> facebook page, but I also made obvious reference to the previous album, \u201catomic bombs.\u201d Tir de Duc<\/em> is my second submission to the Target Practice<\/a> project initiated by L T Holmes<\/a>. The exciting collaboration that makes use of vintage paper targets has taken on a new significance in recent weeks. Collage artists could spend all their available time interacting with each other through the many active collaborative formats. It is important to find the proper balance between solitary investigation and the dynamic cross-fertilization taking place within contemporary collage.
