I bet I know which category she'd put these into.<br />I think they look a bit like Lane Smith's work, from books like The Stinky Cheese Man, and The True Story of the Three Little Pigs. He uses collage, and found objects and funks it all up in a nightmarish kind of way. These rats also make me think of a Neil Gailan book, kind of feeling. I'd love to see more of these dream images.Yellowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05975849028363084985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17216355.post-41015779608797222022009-11-17T09:46:40.375-08:002009-11-17T09:46:40.375-08:00Thanks Dad.

I have found that when I exclude conscious and analytic thought from my art-making, I am much more successful. But it leaves me with no more idea what my art "means" or what it is "supposed" to be than anyone else. I am a spectator just like you. Weird, huh?Melanie Rimmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05871992146568559100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17216355.post-82856677660825416012009-11-17T08:47:30.898-08:002009-11-17T08:47:30.898-08:00I like these (I think).

They're like a hole in a tooth that you can't help exploring with your tongue even though it hurts. Does all, or any, of this make sense? It's the best I can do for now.Bill of Ballaughnoreply@blogger.com
