Today I have just one photo.
Spoiler alert: It's of a cat.
Someone donated a large format book of Currier and Ives pictures to the library. This was a possible goldmine for all my mash-up photo projects, so I started snapping away all kind of pictures of old timey figures, horses pulling sleighs, and river steamboats. I liked some of the paintings okay, and found some to look weird and unsettling, but I came across only one that I found genuinely wonderful. It was like nothing else of their work. And since it wasn't useful to my projects I passed it by.
Then I paged back to it and photographed it anyway.
Later I found it still looked intriguing on my phone.
So then I worked it up into a sort of pop art version of itself.

If you were wondering, yes, you should comment. Not only does it remind me that I must write in intelligible English because someone is actually reading what I write, but it is also a pleasure for me since I am interested in anything you have to say.
I respond to pretty much every comment. It's like a free personalized blog post!
One last detail: If you are commenting on a post more than two weeks old I have to go in and approve it. It's sort of a spam protection device. Also, rarely, a comment will go to spam on its own. Give either of those a day or two and your comment will show up on the blog.
