well. it has taken me *this* long to release the next 9 pieces. i think i will not hold myself to “scheduled” releases from here on out. it feels like a stress and this is not that kind of a project! the larger pieces, although more visible and obvious, and likely to be examined, are more awkward to put in a pocket or discreetly leave somewhere (i am still very self-conscious), so i think i will continue with smaller pieces. tiny treasures. there are two new sets in progress on my table, but this has been a busy week so far and no artPlay time. maybe tonight. and i will scan a couple!
i have also thought that i might use more mundane imagery and text in the next pieces. i tend to prefer glamorizing the mundane anyway and have thought of “altars to ordinary things”. the work i have been leaving out right now might be too obscure and “weird” for the places i am leaving in this little town. i have a (sad) picture of a college kid picking up the one left by the elevator and going “WTF?” and slipping it into the trash. sob.
in the upcoming month, i will be doing some travelling and that will be fun! i am going to work with my texas and boston images and get some small pieces ready to travel along.
spam comments have already been coming in and it is irritating. i really wanted to keep comments open, in case a “discoverer” would like to comment, or for fellow found-artists to discuss, so my fingers are crossed that the spam thing doesn’t get too awful. grrrrrrrr.
