No Matter What Shape - The Archive

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

"Black Bog Snake" - If you can read it, this block-relief print is a paper test proof / artist proof / item G. It's an 'erasercut' carved on a novelty eraser known as 'The BIG Eraser for BIG Mistakes'. Before editioning this print-block I had another artist make some paper for me, hence the series of proofs testing each variety and/or thickness. The subject is a rather large bog snake that began as a drawing in one of my sketchbooks. A regular lino-cutting tool with a #2 V-bit was used to do the eraser carving and watercolor brush-tip markers to ink the block. Posted by Hello
