Click on a painting to then open a page that has detail images of that painting. Clicking on any detail will bring you back to a copy of this page. Note that the details of each collage painting that appear after the finished version, are usually shot at an angle to reveal some of the texture and techniques of the painted surface as well as some of the unique "treasures" hidden in the composition. These "treasures" -little tricks of the eye or my playing with the images to make them interesting , keep viewers looking over and over at the paintings, searching them out and discovering them over time. Due to the angles that the paintings are shot at, there are distortions of focus and occasional glare on the canvas or painted glazes, and textures - the area of sharp focus and clarity (a painted trompe l'oeil technique or faux texture, etc.),thus being high lighted. This added hand painting, along with the "hidden treasures" are two of the major factors that distinquish these works from just a typical photo collage or digital collage - they are in fact each unique - Collage Paintings	Quick Links Click on image or type below www.DigitalCollagePaintings.com www.MaslaFineArt.com ArtWorkshopVacations.com

The following 6 portraits where done for my 2009 exhibition "Mixiing It Up",
at the D'Amour Museum of Fine Arts, in Springfield, Ma. I had wanted to pay tribute
to artists with whom I have had personal interaction and with whom I deeply respect.




"Celebrating a World of Music - Portrait of the Artist Paul Winter "
A couple of years ago I had the good fortune of attending (with my son, Brahm)
a wonderful "Sound Music" workshop conducted by Paul Winter at the Rowe Conference
Center near our home in MA. Pauls' music has inspired me since my early teens when I
first saw him perform the "Icarus" album with his Winter Consort in Central Park. His deeply
spiritual music and that connection through the earth has always resonated with me and
throughout the years I often listen to his music when I paint, particularly my "Grand Landscapes".
The idea for this series was born when Paul humbly and generously agreed to pose for my camera
at the workshop. This series, (as you will see), has led to a much more painterly hand in the
Photo Collage Portraits, as I now incorporate an actual hand painted portrait in the work.
