Surreal animal collages, by using (mostly) photos from my own archive. I like to tell my stories this way.

Wondrous Goose is synonymous with wonder, imagination, and the power of stories. For my collages, I mainly use pictures I’ve taken myself. Animals depict human characteristics, dreams, and idiosyncrasies. The animals I have portrayed during my 20-year career as a photographer, tell their fairy tales in surreal collage art. They live in landscapes that I’ve photographed over the years.
