"The Silver Tea Service" digital collage by Mick Mather
A simple series of layers give a somewhat washed out look to this simple still life. Then, as I pressed on through multiple rounds of filtering, the background began to look like an old tea bag to me. That aside, the service set by itself has a certain elegance that drew me into the image initially. Sugar? Or lemon?
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

My grandmother's silver tea set was her prized posession.
There's nothing quite like high tea with a fabulous silver service set. I bet your dolls never got their pretend tea from there. :D
No sugar, no lemon, some whiskey will do -I prefer my tea hard!

You're my kind of gal alright! I just happen to have a flask of George Dickel right here inside my coat. :)
