Van Gogh Among the Mule Deer

Van Gogh was rejected by women with whom he became enamored and ultimately turned to prostitutes for companionship.

The swell painting of Mule Deer (called such because of their extra large ears)  in the Rocky Mountains is courtesy of an old National Geographic book on wildlife.

Homestories

Not that long ago I made a complete series (out of 30 collages) of human relationships called "Homestories": All collages are a mix of three pieces: German interiors of the 30th, Indian painted movie posters and film stills of the 40th. Because it´s a "young" series and it fit´s so well to the theme, I´m going to show one of them.

Heart, We Will Forget Him

Heart, we will forget him
You an I, tonight
You may forget the warmth he gave,
I will forget the light...

(from a poem by Emily Dickinson)

Fancy An Orange?

What else do you say to Nell Gwyn  if she drops by for tea and a game of draughts?

theme: adult relationships

I have a Belgian friend who has a keen interest in collage, so I asked her to suggest my last theme for the month. (September will be in the inspired hands of Lynn Skordal.) She said, "Sexual identity, gender roles, relationships between men and women..." I'll broaden it a bit to include female-female and male-male relationships as well. Have fun, y'all, and thanks for all the great collages this past month!
