    Wow.

    This is waaaaaay better than "Where's Waldo?"

    This is like Richard Scary's "Busy, Busy World" meets "The Bhagavad Gita" meets "The Voyager Tarot."

    I LOVE your work!

    Ha! I'll have to find a little picture of Waldo and try to sneak him in there somewhere!!

    Odd as it may seem, these are what I do when I need to give my hands a break. For some reason, the simple act of tearing is what's easiest - using scissors, pencils, gripping other tools, not so much. It's because of the joint deteriotration in my hands that I was led to doing these - a gift come out of struggle through adaptation. It also taught me to get over a bunch of little road blocks I'd set in front of myself about collaging - like, can I use "other artist's art?" I had labeled that as wrong in my brain - or some how not "real" art, if I'm using someone else's images. And then once I got over that, there was the getting over using up the images - what if I need them somewhere else?! If I tear them up, they are gone... Noting that was an issue, I don't let myself scan and reuse, and now I'm over that fear of derivation thing!
    I leave it all behind when I get to escape into these landscapes of many minds, filled with the timeless characters of other times and places...
