or Ragequit versus Cooliam

For someone flowing back and forth from traditional to digital processes it is essential at timkes to find a quiet place to work, away from computer skitzoofreenia.  The answer -  the peace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the odd photo shoot.  Here's a word from someone who speaks with pictures.

Please enjoy my new batch of collages, I think the stuff is getting much better each time. A decent batch of 50 or so collages usually has at least 20 zingers (my view) 20 good ones (my view) and 10 OK ones (My view)....  I put out 4 today.

It would be neat to get some feedback on my mini digital collages. They have a pretty extreme form of randomism incorporated intio the process (as i do also in the trad collages)
I'm also enjoying a new naive watercolour portrait style in the traditional area... this connects the disciplines of drawing / tracing / erasing and painting into a smaller (white paper) format. I actually just bought a new cuty-pie watercolour set to work with. You know, the little circles of pigment in a plastic dish.  ($5.00) and some chalk to use to sketch out figurative forms ...used  like charcoal on black canvasses (49c) large (69c)  You can't beat expensive art supplies!!
It goes with the canvas paintings I am doing (which contrast with the cartoony paper ones... lending more to textured (almost sculptural) paintings.  I really admire swamp thick oil paintings that go beyond the 2D in presenting an interesting texture.

We (soccer team) played last night away from home and won 3-1 ...
