Collage: A Penny for Your Cactus

Collage #1: A Penny For Your Cactus

This is either the first, or perhaps second collage I ever created. I think it was made in 1968 (yeah, I'm that old...) I'm happy that it's survived many moves, a house fire, epic fail relationships, and multiple careers. This is one of those I hope to never be parted from.

Reactions to the Face On Mars

Reactions to the Face On Mars -- collage by douglas brent smith. It seemed like a revelation, a sign. Pictures taken of the surface of mars seemed to show a face. Could this mean that there was an intelligent civilization there once upon a time? Many years later, when our cameras produced much higher resolution images we saw that it wasn't really a face at all. It's just something that people do -- we see faces everywhere. We anthropomorphize wildly. Well, the illusion was fun while it lasted. And it lasted long enough to be on my mind when I made this collage in 1993.
