"The Periodic Journal - Collage ReDux"
This show is a compilation of images from magazines and other periodics journals assembled into collages on small canvases. This project took over four months to complete. These 'boxes' are one of the most colorful and enjoyable collection of collages she has creted so far. LuEllen creates works in collage, pastels, photography, pen & ink and watercolor and acrylics. She uses her photography in collages and as studies. LuEllen often combines many types of media and frequently experiments with different techniques.
Her art has been shown extensively in solo and group (juried and non-juried) shows in museums, brick & mortar galleries and some virtual galleries. She has cretaed commissioned work for private collections throughout the United States, Mexico and Europe. She earned her Certificate in Drawing from the School of the Art Institute in 2005.

She curates a monthly international postcard collage exchange (est. 4-2006) and a periodic international candy tin exchange (est. 3-2007).
