24 x 20 x1.5"  paper collage, gallery wrapped on wooden panel.
 
Laura W. Adams is a collage artist whose work depicts the forests, wildlife and wildflowers of the world. She concentrates her subject matter on the flora and fauna and birds that live in areas around her. An avid birder and hiker, Adams brings the viewer into the emotional and spiritual connection she feels in the presence of nature.
 
The source materials Adams uses for her collages include found items from nature, textured papers, painted papers and exotic patterned papers fom around the world that have been cut up, layered, and adhered with acrylic medium. Often, ten or more layers of material are used to create a single work. The result is a “painting” with a distinct, three-dimensional effect.
