I've been doing small 5"x8" for a few years now, and it's been more by intuition or intention on a subject. This time I decided to try to create one by using a photograph and recreating it in a fashion using strips of paper. I saw a photo that Kathleen Jennette posted awhile ago and… Continue reading First Photo Collage

Collage: Two reapers and a castle
The other day I sat down with the boxes of assorted magazine cut-outs, separated by subject (animals, people, landscapes, things) with no idea in mind. I suspended my brain and let intuition pick the pieces. The collage put itself together, a piece at a time. It was too big to scan so I took a… Continue reading Collage: Two reapers and a castle
#MM — Saturday Mix — covid-19 quatrain
The world's walking on a wire Life juggling exploding balls Each hoping nobody falls Yet some will soon sing with the choir. Beneath us all there's a fire Be it hell or hell on earth That has been played with since birth Soaring death rate shows it's dire. Shall we get out of this mire?… Continue reading #MM — Saturday Mix — covid-19 quatrain
Dream collage
Last week or so ago, I started having dreams at night that seemed to be connected to each other. In part of one, it seemed as if I was sinking into a "tunnel of numbers/equations." I've seen graphics where a surface is made of a million little pieces that seems to fall away and dissolve,… Continue reading Dream collage

It was announced on March 3, 2016, with the release of the single "Brace for Impact (Live a Little)". The album was released on… Continue reading Coloring Club Plus (collage) 10/14/19
Coloring Club Plus (collage) — 10/13/19
I've made many collages with nothing in mind and let them build themselves and many where I had a specific concept in mind. Today's collage is the first one I've put together while listening to music. Mitski is my debut music collage, and I think it turned out well as far as symbolizing what her… Continue reading Coloring Club Plus (collage) — 10/13/19
OctPoWriMo2019 Day 12 — black — Prince Whom Darkness Prints
Prince Whom Darkness Prints Globe that twists and swirls the depths of globe Needle thrusts at heaven – dark's needle. Wheedle built from Hell's dev'lish wheedle Trove of darkness cached as treasure trove Wasted hungry fish, starved, thin-waisted Needs to consume light of life; black needs Freed shadow bites eats bleeds, evil freed Tastes… Continue reading OctPoWriMo2019 Day 12 — black — Prince Whom Darkness Prints

Center stage “Here's looking at you, kid.”* See me -- I'm watching you To see you watching My blonde tentacles I want to reach you See red lust and green envy In your eyes I want you to want to be me My luscious lips fill the void In your world of pink butterflies I… Continue reading dVerse — poetic pop art — Big Hair
Collage — Big Hair
Kerfe's been encouraging me to get back to my artwork. My primary medium is 5" x 8" paper collage. I pulled out the magazine clippings tonight. Usually it takes a long time to find the right images to go together, but tonight, these picked themselves. I took a pic with the phone camera as usual,… Continue reading Collage — Big Hair
