Thank you for your comment. Actually, the image was one I came across while I was walking and looking for photos to take. The tire tracks are not in snow although certainly they can be visualized as that. The material was soft, wet sand near a small creek. I left the scene exactly as I found it for the photograph. Later, I changed the light with a computer.
Thanks for posting, Rod, those guys in suits doing their performance would have kept me entertained for hours, no wonder you keep the blinds closed while working!
Thanks Rod for the valuable wee information, I'll give it a try next time I have an important decision to make. Wee hee hee!
That song of yours is too catchy, after hearing it once, I'm still singing it today...you should sell it to Britney and make millions!!! Yes, there are a few cd players here on the farm, as well as record players and all sorts of other obsolete electrical devices. I may have to put them on higher shelves today as we're experiencing floods on the 'golf course'!
Hey, don't worry about making light of it, I'm not suffering really! As long as I have a little bit of roof over me and enough blankets and wine I'll be fine! Did you really see our mad weather on the news?
Thanks for the email, I'll check out the helgi?stuff tonight!
Hi thanks for leaving me a message and sent you a friend request. Bristol is current city I'm living in and has become more colourful because the street art and this Gromit hunting event going on. I was born up north, Robin Hood country for some strange reason I feel connected to trees and nature. If I get the chance I'll send something to you.
Rod! Where have you been all my life? Thanks a bunch for the mail art, so much food for thought that I had to have a little lie down halfway through reading it! I won't be going hungry with that assortment of cards, really terrific stuff, thank you.
Now, the stuff you emailed me, for some reason (probably my stupidity) I'm not able to access it. Hmph. Still getting my head around this new computer of mine...so I'm sorry I haven't responded to that stuff.
I'm still singing MA Dada Skank after a week or so...and after only one listen!! Gold.
If I have enough time I would stay around to watch it erupt. Thanks for giving me the link this is really fascinating. I've never seen geysers in real life.
So you're have return from your trip to Iceland or still there? My blogs needs updating especially the mailart one. Sadly, I don't the energy anymore I hoping to do some art in weekends.
You must like travelling. I like visiting new places but hate travelling especially by plane. There was one trip where I had to stop in Doha to get a connection to Hong Kong and end up as 11 hours. I was with Qatar Airways the food was lovely and entertain was good. Other places I've been are Europe: France, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, Holland and Barcelona. I really want to go to Japan and heard of talks of 4 day trip. Fingers cross might come true.
I thought you wanted me to watch your sheep video because I live on a sheep station, but it's because there's a Latvian Viking in it!! Pukitis!! Midsummer in N.Europe is divine, isn't it? Do the Icelanders jump over fires wearing botanical wreaths on their heads too?
Hello. If you happen to be interested, I have been putting together an exhibition at the Franklin Arts Center Resident Artists Gallery, here in Brainerd, MN, to showcase Mail Art from all around the world. The exhibition is titled, 'POSTAL', and there is still a couple more weeks to send your Mail Art to us, to be included in the show. Check out the link below for more information. - Thanks, Martin.
Yeah, it made it and WOW! The stuff you photographed is exactly the stuff I LOVE! I stuck it in the tv and had a 54 inch slideshow!! So good! Thanks a bunch!
Sent you a few things to play with at the end of last week.
24.09.13 Dare Rod Summers,...long time no richard c..... & I once sent Ray Johnson a postcard that read something like: "We put blue food coloring in the grits" (everybody knows how habitual those southern rednecks are about their hominy grits) & he returned the card (probably covered up someplace around here) marked with his big red marker that read (as I recall): "I poured beet juice on the rice". Best to you. Richard
Thanks for the cards. They are so 'fresh' and crisp.
My daughter and I are playing around with the idea of writing a story for kids - called "The Adventures of Ootiful and Upchuck". So, the 'Brain,Vomit,Upchuck" card had especial resonance!
If you really look at the USA we are "owned" by a lot of countries and perhaps we can take a lesson from Venezuela and "nationalize" our interests in our own country. I figure I have to work until 90 to pay rent and eat because they are always trying to cut up medicare and social security and Obamacare is not cheap unless you are a homeless so we support the worlds poorest too.
06.02.14 Dare Mister Rod Summers, Wow!!!...I saw the image of your newly baked bread at the Mail Art Café. You are a real artist...no wonder you are willing to let go of this shuffling of cardboard concept...(i.e. didn't I read somewhere that you were gonna retire from all this nonsense???) Best to you. Richard

Hi Rod
I've received your postcard today it's different from I usually get from postcrossing. I was asked a question 'Are those geysers real?'
Just silly. I didn't reply to the question.

re: blue road work,
they are quite small, only 12"x12"
both were started by hand and manipulated in a paint program.
i have limited space and usually think about
them as large paintings.
cheerio, cb.
