Our guest presenter for March 20 is Denise McQuiston. Denise moved to Western Massachusetts from Northern California to escape the wildfires. She is a self-taught collage artist who learned in a casual style by working on group projects, taking various classes, and exploring on her own. Denise was influenced by science fiction book cover art when she was younger. The art inspired her with mysterious backgrounds and an array rich and bright hues. She gathers much of her collage material from vintage science books and National Geographic magazines. Her tools are simple: scissors, paper and glue. She uses various digital art apps and tools for colorization, contrast and finishing for her collages. Denise explores the digital options to create deeper and richer elements to her art; these tools allow the collages to just fall into place.
