Hi Vivian. Many thanks for spending your time and for your nice words. 22"x28" work is quite a big size for a collage artist to fill in the blank. It took more time for me. As I used painting techniques, I had to put a couple of layers of pieces of magazines on the work. I am afraid that I have been drifting away from an art process to the handicraft one. I do not think that I can sell them. The price reflects my intensive labour and not based on my artistic skills. However, my work is unique and cannot be recreated or cloned as art works in oi, acrylic, etc. Who knows I may hit the jackpot. There is a possibility that a rich art lover - who want to have a unique work -may buy mine.

Hello and congratulations on this fabulous collage....it's sooo full of a variety of shapes/colours/words and more, it will take me time to see well into it. Your description certainly helps me understand your motivation about showing the surreal as well, it's very fine work, and quite a price, too....I dearly hope others comment too, and, that you sell it, though how you'd part with it I don't know: must have taken you so very long to do it!!!

Description:

The St. Andrew’s Cathedral is located in the heart of downtown Victoria (at the corner of View St. and Blanchard St). The building was designed as a duplicate of a parish church in Vaudreuil, Quebec by Montreal church architects Maurice Perrault and Albert Mesnard.
The church was built in 1892, restored and renovated in mid-1980s. Renovation and changes maintain and respect its original Victorian architectural design.
This work - the last collage of my Victoria church series – is created from 100% paper cut & torn from magazine. In the collage, I gave up my chaotic collage techniques and adapted mainly “oil painting” techniques as I was trying to capture every details of this beautiful building.
I intentionally used pieces of magazines that have printing words on them for viewers to distinguish the work as a collage and not a painting in oil or acrylic. The mystic and dramatic sky was created to enhance the collage and reflect the surreal and spiritual environment of the cathedral.
