    Another Heart Breaks & Other Art

    Another Heart Breaks & Other Art

    Another Heart Breaks, paper collage, 2022 As a general rule, I am not good at titling artwork. Poetry is easy: the title seems to happen organically (most of the time). But with regard to collage art…forget it. Unless a phrase or concept arrives in my mind while I’m creating–which almost never happens–I typically resort to…

    The Jungle

    The Jungle

    The Jungle, collage on vintage postcard, 2022 Man strives toward reason only so that he can make rules for himself. Life itself has no rules. That is its mystery and its unknown law. What you call knowledge is an attempt to impose something comprehensible on life. C. G. Jung As you may know, I don’t…

    On Possibility

    On Possibility

    Going Places, paper collage, 2021 Of the various subjective experiences of creativity that I’ve attempted to describe over the years, the one that probably fascinates me most (next to the role of novelty in creativity) is the feeling, or sense, of possibility that seems inherent in creative work. An example: I flip through a 1953…

    The Littlest Guests

    The Littlest Guests

    Carolina Chickadee As you’ve probably noticed, I tend to include a variety of species in my bird photography posts. As a result, I’m sometimes afraid that I focus too much on larger, visually stunning species, like hawks, jays, and certain woodpeckers, and I, perhaps, don’t give enough attention to the littlest guests at my feeders.…

    Fly Girl & Other Art

    Fly Girl & Other Art

    Fly Girl, paper collage, 2022 I haven’t done much in the way of collage-making over the past few weeks. On several occasions, I tried, but inspiration was at a minimum. An observation: At any given time, I can either see the possibility in everything or the possibility in nothing. That is, there are days when…

    The Truth Has No Name, paper collage, 2022 unknowingness is a pencil on a sheet of paper an astronaut is a slip of the tongue nothing that comes from this world has ever been a horizon the nameless sensations of a cup of coffee laughing now, in my hands unknowing as two bluebirds this afternoon,…

    Trust in Everyday Life

    Trust in Everyday Life

    Stuck in the Middle, paper collage, 2022 The ego is not master in its own house. Sigmund Freud I made a trip to my favorite used bookstore on Saturday. They have the largest and most eclectic psychology section of any local bookstore I know, and since I began Freud’s New Introductory Lectures on Psychoanalysis a…

    Glamour Shots

    I was fortunate to have a photo shoot with a lady Northern Cardinal the other day. She posed for me for about 10 minutes, which was pretty amazing. These photographs are the best of the bunch. I like the light here. (Generally speaking, I love the light this time of year.) I also think the…
