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

Walking is a state of mind. When I visited Paris in the early 90's, I walked for about 160 km in one week, didn't use buses, u-ground or taxi, just walked and looked around.
And sat at the cafes when getting tired in feet.

I've been walking all my life, Susu. As a boy it was a necessity; later in life I discovered early that walking will allow you access to a state of mind that is nothing short of extraordinary. :)
Wait for me, I'm coming! I like to daydream a little while I walk...
Lucky Dip Lisa:
Me too ... my pace is no more than an amble.
There is serenity in a timeless step. Not rushing. Observing. Moving.
I will now take a hike.

Don' forget your snowshoes.
Hi Mick, new to your blog, via John M. Mora. Walking opens one 's eyes to all the overlooked and obvious in our environment, to all the nuances one misses when speeding by, in vehicular motion. One looks with an artistic mind, to note the subtleties.
Studio Sylvia:
Welcome aboard, Syl, come early and often.
