​M. Carrington Arredondo      
Mixed media collage artist in San Francisco, California, USA

I love to DESTROY & CREATE!
I have always been an artist and come from a graphic artist background.
My former pre-press cut+paste life has morphed into COLLAGE since 1993 after much book making.
​Although I use mostly two-dimensional media, I prefer painting abstracts with paper.

I love type, letterforms, calligraphy, brushstrokes, hieroglyphs, ancient runes, and mark-making.
I grope to communicate by cutting and tearing materials to make bold shapes.
I rely on intuition and am not in control of the process.

​A minimalist at heart, I present my work on simple deep canvas or wood panels, unframed.
All my pictures are titled, signed and dated on back of the work.
