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

Onondaga Earth Corps: Save the Creek Sculpture -

"Save the Creek"
sculpture by Onondaga Earth Corps Team
Here's a peek at the sculpture created by a 7-member team of community minded teenagers during the month of April. Silly me, I've misplaced all of the paperwork so I can't list the names of this terrific group of kids who really worked hard to make this public art piece a reality. The work is made of "found" materials that were taken from Onondaga Creek as part of the Earth Day Creek Cleanup in the Spring and Fall of 2007. The story deserves more and I hope to post a longer, more informative version with credits and acknowledgments one day very soon. I'm proud to have been afforded the opportunity to work with the group and I promise to add each of their names once I uncover the list.
