authentic and strong

authentic and strong ------------------------------------ you do not kiss anybody's ass or pretend you are anything that you're not fiercely independent you have your rules not guidelines not negotiables rules and you don't doll up to please man or woman or play with hearts for the sake of playing you don't care who cares if you care that's enough you don't try to be sexy instead you are strong certain, focused, driven, persistent and loyal and wow, that is powerfully awesomely sexy.

cheese and crackers

i'm too old to keep this a secret and past pretending to be cool because i want to kiss you like our hair's on fire and touch you like we're both unbreakable and eat cheese and crackers washed down with wine as we laugh about crums in the sheets and furry pets with curious faces you don't need to love me forever but, you'd better love me fast.

busy world

Busy World - Collage by Douglas Brent Smith (c) 1968 Busy World is the first collage that I ever made. I still have the original. As with most of my collages through over 50 years of making them, most are on 8 1/2 by 11 inch notebook paper. They're small little worlds about the size of magazine pages. I use found images, mostly from magazines from newspapers cut with simple scissors and fixed with Elmer's undiluted glue. Some also involve other images such as photographs and my own drawings. My favorite season to make collages is winter - especially December and January. For information on how to purchase one or more collages framed or unframed, please contact me at: douglasbrentsmith@gmail.com They are expensive because I don't really want to part with them but I can be persuaded, especially if we're friends.

welcome to my studio...

This is where I gather my artistic efforts in one place. Over the years I've enjoyed deep involvement in music, poetry, collage, and theater. I've also enjoyed related areas such as film, painting, dance, and improv.
