"Last Wooden Nickel" digital collage by Mick Mather
This particular piece was, in fits and starts, clear then vague and back again. I decided I'd better give it a title during one of the moments of clarity and here you have it. Forgive me for posting and rushing off but my batteries need a serious recharging!

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

It could be keyhole. What's there... in the other side?!
Could I say that it's puzzling me? No, I'm just saying that it evokes a piece of a puzzle to me!
It looks like the setting sun was falling fast on the end of the street.
Didn't I say something about puzzling and puzzles. I suppose I didn't write the word verification as I should have done.

You see why I so love to hear from The Finnish Sisters as regards what they perceive. A keyhole never occurred to me at all. :)
hpy:
Let's just say that this image was as puzzling - and puzzle-like - for me as it seems to be for you.
harlequinpan:
Yes! A wonderfully conceptual take on this. Are you sure you're not Finnish as well? :D
i hope i am, but i'm afraid of cold a bit! And i don't have skis! :)
harlequinpan:
Yes, hope is a good thing. I'm fairly certain that qualifies you for the club. :)
