collage art & me
As rich and deeply textured of the lives of the men and women portrayed. The fabric collage art of Rhonda Nichols brings new life into old materials and celebrates the strong men and women of long ago. The multiple layers of treated and aged fabrics and recycled embellishments, dazzles the eye and speaks to the hearts through skilled composition and a desire to honor the strong men and women displayed throughout her work. Each piece speaks its own story and is individually crafted with great attention to detail, texture, depth and color. Along with her 85 year old mother, who help with the sewing of each piece, Rhonda scours antique and thrift stores for the perfect embellishments to add to each piece. Vintage drapes, coffee stained lace from wedding dresses, clothing, belts, vintage jewelry are just a few samples of what you will find on her work. Her unique art is a proven seller in many gift shops and art galleries. Custom pieces and subjects are available upon request.
