Fran Skiles has a deep and intimate connection to nature. She gathers the earth’s rich bounties as memories, emotions, specimens, or photographs, and intuitively transforms them into abstract collaged landscapes.
Collage has always been her medium of choice, beginning in her preschool years. The materials have changed and her eye and experiences have become more sophisticated, but she still enjoys the thrill of discovery as she did as a child.
