Time For Another Episode...

 

Time For Another Episode...

"Time For Another Episode...Dream Collage 87" collage by douglas brent smith, 26 December 1987


It feels like winter has always been my most productive collage season. It started in college when I'd use much of my semester break drinking Dr. Pepper, eating hot dogs and baked beans, and making collages. The Dr. Pepper was yummy but destroyed one of my teeth and nearly destroyed them all. Switching to black coffee (oh, and brushing my teeth!) came to the rescue.

I'm not sure why this collage has such a long title. I don't think there are 86 other "dream collages" sequenced in the catalogue. Clearly, it refers to the year in some amusing way.

Here we see the casual disregard of an ominously dangerous insect-like critter -- headed for havoc. So often though, we can be oddly calm just before all trouble breaks loose.

The gentleman in the lower left corner has an answer for you on the line, if you're willing to reverse the charges.

 Bill Said Yes - collage by douglas brent smith, 3 January 1987


Notes:
Originally titles "George Said Yes" but clearly that is Bill (I think it might be the actor Bill Irwin) and Bill is being asked a question, to which he enthusiastically answers "Yes!"
