Bidding Anthropomorphized Angels Adieu

I'm saying farewell to two of my rings.  It took me a post on In Harsh Light to express the elaborate 'embalming' ceremony and memorialization which I go through every time I sell a piece- which, in effect became a memorial to my memorialization ceremonies.

In the midst of the memorial-mania, I managed to throw in images of the recently sold rings in digital photo collages.

                                                                 Bye Bye Birdie...

"Bird on the Hand" Ring

Farewell, "Votary of Narcissus" Ring...

Adieu, pretties. 

Words Will Follow

No more holding back. I have thousands of images just taking up space on my hard drive. If I wait to put words with the images, it will never happen. As I should know by now, my creative process always begins with images- words and their stories manifest afterwords. So here it goes- a stream-of-consciousness blog, a digital sketchbook, a public scratch pad- and if any bit of wit or insight comes of it, it will, like nearly all my creative endeavors, be a happy accident.
