Crafting Reality Collection
In this series we used collage to build intricate alternate realities shaped by collective imagination. Each print is made by cutting, layering, and assembling magazines, paper, and markers to form vibrant worlds and fantastical stories. This collection of works explores the quiet power of letting imagination lead the way. Bring one into your space if you want a portal on your wall, a spark of wonder in your studio, or a daily reminder that imagination thrives when you give it room.
Illustrated Sports Collection
This digital collage series reimagines athletics through the spirit of DIY. Each print captures a handcrafted event from the mystical Arts & Crafts Olympics, where every athlete plays with imagination as their main skill. As the official merch of the Stretch of the Imagination Art Club, these prints celebrate art‑making as an active, joyful game. Hang one in your craft room, office, or living space when you want a burst of playful energy and a reminder that creativity is a sport you can practice every day.
