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

Land Art Project -

"Kings Court Cube - In Progress, Day Two"
land art sculpture by Mick Mather
After two days of construction my thinking harks back to an old Lee Dorsey album. I bet I listened to that LP at least a hundred times and one of my favorites was a song called "Work, Work, Work" that was written by Allen Toussaint song. Now, one might suggest that something a bit more modern, like "Workin' For A Living" by Huey Lewis & the News, would be as good a fit. Maybe, but if you played both of these songs side by side, the down tempo, drifting refrain of the former is surely the way my body was reacting today. More documentation as the work continues.
