Feast or Fedora? collage by douglas brent smith.                         NOTES:           Not sure that this is finished. Maybe it needs color. Maybe some more drawing. For now, it is a collage with much more text than usual. It's of a time so long ago for me now that I think I'll just let it be. It's a page from a journal with a bit of beat sensibility baked in. Or burnt.  Here, at least. You never can tell when that will change...

  Contemplating the Case for Control -- collage by douglas brent smith NOTES: I made so many of these black & white, copy-machine preserved collages which developed a moment here, a moment there, adding or drawing snatches of things that grabbed my attention while I was doing other things. When Collageman's mind wanders, where else would you expect it to go? I did turn many of these (and entire three-ring binder full) into color collages using markers. When did I ever find the time for that? The coloring happened at home, listening to music, watching TV...in idle hours in the days before the internet stole our brains. Different times, indeed.

  Challenging Gravity on Four Different Planes -- collage by douglas brent smith, 26 December 1992. It wasn't easy being a scientists and working with bears was no picnic. Well, it could be a picnic for the bears because they insisted on being paid in food. Getting them to defy gravity kept the scientist busy. It got easier when they discovered a secret plane in plain sight. It made hovering a darn site easier.
