…with the visual poetry exploration in-between the other stuff I’m working on. These little poems are, for me, interesting and fun.

Interesting because I’m able to take bits from the past, be them ideas or materials, and marry them with the present. I can weave some kind of story in too, with words. Perhaps I could string them all together into an exhibition, a calendar, a pack cards with recipes on the back, or a book.

Fun because they are small, inexpensive to make and quick to assemble…I can leave them unfinished without worrying about waste, or spend time finishing them depending on how much I’m enjoying the outcome. I can limit the materials I use and create them anywhere, in or out of the studio.

Something old, something new.

The Lobster mornay and creme burlee… they don’t just want to be elected!

The random, abstracted quality of the illustrations allows for some wildly obscure thought, or thought bubbles.

something borrowed

out of lobster., burlee as a concept only

how random can I make this I wonder…

a robot wronged a human as did creme burlee

now there’s a thought - what has humans invented that has been good for the individual, good for the group and good for the environment - like absolutely good with no down side to it whatsoever?

Something blue

the end.
