Lori K. Gordon's collages d'art
are created from handpainted, handmade and found papers. These papers
are joined with various images, polymer clay, or found objects. The
resulting collages are unique, handmade jewels of original and
affordable art.
These collages are most often quite small,
starting at about 5" x 6". They come to you mounted on art board or
foamcore for stability. They may be exhibited as is, or removed from
their backing and mounted on larger boards for framing.
At this
time, there are several series of collages which are available. Please
scroll down to see examples from each of these series:
The Icon Series
features relief images in polymer clay that are formed from molds made
from old brass icons, dated from the 16th to 19th centuries. I have a
collection of these breathtaking icons, and the relief images created
from them are really incredible.
The Angels of the Storm Series
features giclee images of some of my original paintings. These
paintings were modeled after old portraits of saints, and are two
dimensional. I began this series as a way to try and thank the many
volunteers who came to the coast in the relief efforts following
Hurricane Katrina.
The Fleur de Lis Series
celebrates our friendship with the city of New Orleans. These fleur de
lis are done in polymer clay, and rise up off of the surface of the
paper, as do the icon pieces.
The Tarot Series
is another two dimensional series which features images from Tarot
cards. I use several different sources of cards, including the
Visconti-Sforza Tarot, dating from the 15th century.
I also have
many collages which do not fit into these categories. I try and price
them all by size, with a few exceptions now and then. My pricing list
follows- please understand that all sizes are approximate, as each
piece is unique.
5" x 7" and under: $20
8" x 10" to 5" x 7": $30
Larger than 8" x 10": starting at $40
If
you need me to ship pieces to you, the packaging, shipping and handling
fee is $5 for the pieces which are 8" x 10" and under.
One last
word-chances are pretty good that the examples which you see here have
been sold-these pieces are moving very quickly. To insure that you get
the piece you want, specify which series you are interested in, the
size you want, and the predominant color (or colors) you prefer and I
will create one just for you.
