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. _/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/ you may use this image for non-commercial purposes. please cite it as follows: collage: a penny for your cactus (c) 2016 douglas brent smith

Collage: Behind The Birthday Van

Behind The Birthday Van For a while I was attracted to black & white images for the raw material of my collages. In this case, I glued what I was working on to a colorful sample of stationery. Happy Birthday, wherever you are. _/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/ you may use this image for non-commercial purposes. please cite it as follows: collage: Behind The Birthday Van (c) 2016 douglas brent smith

Collage: Alphabet Soup

Alphabet Soup This is both a collage and a creative writing prompt. For a time, I experimented with creating different versions of a collage using a copy machine to duplicate the base, and then making changes in it. Sort of like a very slow motion movie. Or perhaps an indulgence. It's fun. Enjoy. _/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/ you may use this image for non-commercial purposes. please cite it as follows: collage: Alphabet Soup (c) 2016 douglas brent smith

my heart so full of you

even with the world falling apart all i can think about is keeping us together is bringing us together doing over chances to choose love that endures purely forming storms of passion, not disappointment and pleasures we'd treasure not measure against impossible pondering such notions preoccupy me even as you chasten me to let go of them and declare we're over that we're on the same page on so many things singing similar songs yet wrongly irregular on this         i must (don't judge)         simply kiss you again. again this. a kiss you and me and see where this leads us. and please, trust me on this i have your best interests at heart and my heart             so full of you throbs incessantly still agreed, we see this                    differently and so i'll wait and take moment by careful moment time with you until i'm no longer (we're no longer) careful and cautious but dramatically real how does that feel?
