2/10/20 collage, 11 1/4 x 8 3/4”/28x22 cm.
12:32 PM: i made a new collage this morning, which may signal a shift to larger, simpler forms. or not.
yesterday afternoon we attended a political event, of which mikela was the main organizer. it was well attended, and several candidates for county commissioner in saguache county spoke, as well as a virtual appearance by us senate candidate andrew romanoff. i made brownies, which were immediately gobbled up, and there were other goodies, including delicious fresh carrots from the farm of one of the candidates. questions were asked and answered, and i think the goal was achieved: attendees left with greater knowledge of the issues, how each candidate thinks and feels about them and what actions they plan on taking if elected.
BELOW starting at the top left: detail of a collage i made a few days ago showing the contrast to what i did today; a late afternoon sky announcing a few days of predicted snowy weather, starting this afternoon; a framed collage from 2012 which shares some of the aesthetics of what i did today; a view looking west in our master bedroom with mostly greek related paintings, a 2014 collage on canvas and the edge of an ano kato series painting; and finally, a shot of the event yesterday afternoon, which was held in the gym of our local crestone charter school.
