A 2000 paper collage by the American artist Nancy Hathaway. Titled The Journey, this abstract work uses overlapping paper in gray, yellow, red, white, blue, and pink to create an organic composition. Displayed in a silver tone metal frame and a light gray mat, this collage is signed and dated to the lower right and titled and signed verso.

From the artist:

I have been painting for as long as I can remember. First, there was the wood stove, melting crayons on the hot, slick surface; watching the colors run, mingle, create new hues. Then there was the garden mud, blossoms, twigs, and leaves; organized into overlapping shapes with lost edges and hard edges. Always, there was the telling of a story, of the discovery of the moment and of the universal constants. 

I have tried to record these discoveries through art, and most often through painting. Like story telling, painting is a messy business. It is not unusual for the painting to talk back, to challenge the focal point, or the central theme of the story.
