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

Does this have a touch of pop-art? Not so heavy, but in a more modern, lighter way?
Beautiful colors!this reminds me of Anna-Eva Bergman's works.

You know, I've never thought of these pieces as pop art, but since you mention it, they certainly fit! I do appreciate the reference and must now wonder, is this neo-pop-moderne?
harlequinpan:
Thanks so much for the comment on the colors and for the reference to Bergman. I looked at a few of her paintings and can see what you mean. I'll have to visit more of her work now that I'm aware.
Love it. However, the liberal crazy in me wants to say "guns ARE NOT toys." ;)
the charm school dropout:
Thanks, Sarah. I'm thinking that other, underlying social issues are more of a problem as regards squirt gun violence ... however, I'm thinking that I could certainly vote "YES" to squirt gun control should the legislation come up. ;)
