In its short-sightedness, blogger has turned its back on those of us stuck with old operating systems and I'm forced to find a new blog host. You will now find MickMathersARTblog at Blog.com - use the direct link found in the masthead and remember to update your bookmarks. This place will continue as another archive for a large body of my work. As many of you know, my primary medium and working method is digital collage composed of manipulated photographs often combined with digital drawing & generative images. Netlabels, bands and musicians can view samples of my CD Cover Art at Mick Mather Illustration located on Tumblr. In another life I was an Arts & Culture consultant specializing in revitalization planning through creative public art projects and programs with Economic & Community Development Departments of towns, villages and cities. In these hard financial times this work is more important than ever and I still accept consultancy inquiries. You can contact me by email at: mickmather@yahoo.com

I'm a very resourceful midnight rambler, Laurel. :D
I never in a million years would have thought of illustrating 'wrinkle' like this...I see the themes each week but I think to literaly. I could learn from you and Shani :)
lisa sarsfield:
Thanks for this comment, Lisa. It's quite natural and normal to take a topic literally. I have the same literal ideas as most people do, at first. Taking that, turning it upside down and inside out and then walking even further out is what makes it all fun for me. The work takes longer and the research is sometimes harder, but always I find that the journey is well rewarded. :)
This is very sensual and beautiful.
susupetal:
Thank you for saying so. Since I'm easily excitable, I haven't been quite sure if that side of this would show through. :)
sly...
Hihihihihihi....I know, I should be serious here. Ok...I'm serious....hihihihihihihi...phoof...OK...LoLo just cracked me up. Right..well...I wouldn't have thought of this for wrinkle, but I have to admit, it's quite appropriate. IF can be a bit tame sometimes, I think you've uped the sexy factor with this one. Ah...back to wrinkles...well, I'm sure she has one, I mean some, which one(s) is up to each person's interpretation I suppose. Good work Mick!
the charm school dropout:
...as a fox! :D
shani:
LMAO @ Lolo's comment too! It's got to be the best of the bunch. I also have to say that this post was inspired by Harold Webster's character, Caspar Milquetoast, from his 1920's comic strip, The Timid Soul. The name has become synonymous with one who is, among other things, considered meek and submissive. Since I figure that such a man's spouse might also be the timid type, the wrinkle of the good Mrs. Milquetoast shown here is clear; just this once and just for fun! :)
