With two locations in Portland - one in the heart of the Alberta Street Arts district, and the other in the historic Sellwood neighborhood, collage has become much more than just the local art and craft supply store. Regulars and newcomers flock to collage to bask in the overflowing creative atmosphere.

First came indie rock bands and indie movies. Now, thanks to Jessica Vitkus, the indie movement has reached the world of crafts, where traditional techniques such as knitting, mosaic, embroidery, metalwork, sewing, and collage are being used in brave new ways. With an emphasis on recycling, improvising, and making things from scratch, AlternaCrafts offers more than 20 projects that provide this newest generation of crafters with the skills they need for the self-expression they crave. read more

I was born and raised in Northeast Ohio. Encouraged to pursue my love of art, I attended The Columbus College of Art and Design where I received my Bachelor's degree in Illustration. After having moved to the Northwest I began my illustration career with Kate Endle Illustration. This work has found its way into children's books and magazines, murals, stickers, corporate material, greeting cards and educational materials.

Original fine art in watercolor and mixed media collage. My artwork begins with layers of poured paint and paper. The process of pouring paint is methodical, yet mindlessly therapeutic for the soul. The collage paintings are layers of paper and paint, and include antique book pages circa 1800's. Handmade & hand painted papers, fibers and inks play hide & seek in my collage paintings. Look closely or you may miss something that you didn't first see! Textured papers of handmade organic elements meld color and shape together to entertain the viewer and please the soul.

Trying to save the world, one craft at a time, by creating unique repurposed and upcycled handmade goods. Viewing the world through brass goggles with upcycled lenses offers me a unique perspective that helps others see the potential beauty in their trash. A bit like a time-travelling Dr. Frank-N-Furter, I create steampunk, mixed media, and collage pieces with a unique twist that are reflective of my sometimes warped and twisted view of the world.
