Trout Fishing In America

An altered postcard of Richard Brautigan (1935-1984).  I have always been a #1 fan of Mr. Brautigan's work.  Learn more about him:

Note:  our scanner is currently not hooked up and I had to photograph the postcard with my iPhone.  Background is the cherry wood mantel in our dining room.

    Trout fishing indeed! What a truly cool collage, Angie! I love the porthole-into-Time effect.... Is there room at the top for another #1 Richard Brautigan fan, because I have all of those paperbacks in varied colors from the 1970s, and I read Watermelon Sugar out loud to my husband on our honeymoon in 1978.... Where in the heck did you find that gorgeous photo of Mr. B? I want one!

      YES! Always room for another #1 FAN...the central image of Richard Brautigan sitting on the edge of an old bathtub, that I collaged over is a postcard I picked up years ago. The reverse says "Photograph courtesy of Michael Ochs Archives" and the postcard was published by Pomegranate Publications, P.O. Box 808022, Petaluma, CA 94975.

    I do not know Mr. Brautigan - but nevertheless I like you collage and the "outlook" through the porthole.
