my abstract home
sea 'n' sand
delivered into dark
for love of splendid pattern
broken and rough-hewn humanity
black & white series 01
unlucky gold in its horn
augenblick
simple wimple dimple
blue spikes
flying high above the city
where do we go from here?
red with white polka dots
stilettos too
brillant et bleu un moment
convocation of squares
denizens of scrapland
live at night
david bowie's station to station
pinkanalysis
waltzing above the ice
accretion of data
she's writing a book
her majesty obscured
il ne se baigne pas
"holy palm trees, batman! it's a parade!"
homage to "krazy kat"
shades
monsters in the mud
fish in the city
spots on sharks
odalisque with fish
the world upside
the streets are sunken
"I hate being an object"
push comes to love
overwhelmed by thirsty birds
a chaos of feelings
the partially invisible mixed-up transvestite
the woman is a prophet
dysfunctional family
birds gotta swim, fish gotta fly
thinkin' 'bout animals in love
what century is it?
rain rain go away

shooting the moon (game of hearts)


Cut-paper collage created for Kollage Kit theme "Games."
For those of you who don't know the card game called "Hearts": Hearts, and the Queen of Spades, are bad. They accrue points when you take them in tricks. The Queen of Spades counts for 13 hearts. The aim is to have as low a score as possible. There is one very daring maneuver one may try, called "Shooting the Moon." When you Shoot the Moon, you take ALL the hearts, plus the Queen of Spades, and you get zero points, whereas all the other players get 26. It's not easy to do, but it's fun if you can pull it off.
The Queen of Spades is adapted from a Gibson girl in her underwear, before she's attached the extra hair piece on top. The background is found papers in shades of green, evoking the green baize table card games are often played on.
