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

Even if it has nothing, absolutely nothing to do with it, this picture told me it's time for TEQUILA.
It will be a vivid installation.
Oh, I just love that greenness! More!
Soft and green
I could eat them!

Hmmm ... I think I get the picture Hélène - "1 tequila, 2 tequila, 3 tequila, floor!" :D
harlequinpan:
It already is. We did get the bushes planted, just not shaped to the point that I want them ... as mentioned, we'll do that in the spring. :)
susupetal:
I actually do have 1 more version of this to post. However, what I believe I'm hearing is that you will absolutely NOT be interested in seeing any snow pictures this year?
elegia:
LOL ... and plenty of roughage! Bon appetit! :D
6 months!! Such a long wait! Still I shouldn't complain...it would be 12 months of waiting if it was our next spring!
I am pleased for you that you can leave this at such a postive point. It does not seem unfinished here...it must be the feel of it.
Ha, I got all that from a drawing and a few typed words. Imagine if I saw it!
:)
Looks interesting Mick! I will look forward to following this project as it develops! Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At my age, six months passes like a long weekend. That said, I'm always pleased at your positive comments. This piece is right on the Creek Walk where dozens of people see it every day ... I'm as delighted about being able to place it there as anyone else I think. Finally, just there's no mistake, this study is a heavily manipulated photograph, not a drawing. Since I couldn't shape the arbor vitae, I did a little cutting and pasting of the photo before running it through the filters.

Thanks very much, Kevin. Once we get this thing into a sculptured shape the next step will be the development of a Blossom Festival when the crabapple trees (the other half of this same project) begin to flower.
Mick, yes of course you can use my piece for the series. I don't know if you remember this from past posts, but I always try to put 3 cypress trees in my landscapes to remember the 3 cats I drove out to Cali with. I have several if you'd like to use them ;)
Not cats...paintings!
studio lolo:
To tell the truth, I do recall something about the trees and the cats. How many paintings or images are there? I'd love to be able to use them as part of the readymade grouping of The Trinity Series.
