Um, I don't remember what Walt had to do with that episode.

i'll always associate walt with the Northern Exposure episode where maurice punches chris because he called him gay.

Below are the images of Theresa's very beautiful Walt Whitman card, which arrived in yesterday's mail.  These are also on my blog with a bit of commentary.  That post can be found here.

Altogether a touching, artistic, and challenging piece, and I love it.

Got it.  I would never assume you're being artistically literal anyway, SH, but do like knowing more about how you work, which is unique to say the least.  And I like seeing the book covers!

nancy, if you were meaning the book covers i post along with my zombiesemics - i don't really draw inspiration from those (with the obvious exception of American Gods).

 

it takes about two days to work on one of the big collages, and during that time i listen nonstop to an audiobook - a different audiobook each time. each one takes me on a whole new trip of thinking, which makes the things i search for when creating the collage quite varied; as each author has vastly different concepts and nuances in language; i think that gets reflected to some extent in the collages.

 

but as for the actual book covers that i post along side with the collages, they are usually just to show what book i was listening to.

 

but i do like to see cool book covers, like the swimming person with the hair in their face! ;-D

definitely inspiring, and i may just use that picture in my cuirrent work!!!

I've noticed that, but those who worry more about what's appropriate tend to be more, well, worrisome.

Haha, yah, I am a BIG conversation hog in the Lit and Art group today.  Help.

oh, i just google all kinds of stuff all day long for my collages -

i paste interesting stuff where it's appropriate.

or where inappropriate.

it doesn't really make a difference to me! ;-D
