Post Secret...

http://www.postsecret.blogspot.com/

Part of an art exhibit where postcards of secrets are displayed. I love the art, the humanity of it. Each postcard is a small window to someone out there.

Carole Maso's Essay

"Market me. Promote me. Sanitize me. Co-opt me. Plagiarize me. Market me harder."
-carole maso at http://www.barcelonareview.com/20/e_cm.htm
Once again she has put the words to the flurry in my head...the above essay could just as easily fit a graphic artist as it does Carole Maso, a writer.
Why do we do what we do? Is it in vain? Does it "make a difference?" Does it have to?
Why don't the beautiful people in my life get more-they deserve more!

"Wish list: that the homogeneity end. That the mainstream come to acknowledge, for starters, the thousand refracted, disparate beauties out there."
So true, and to paint them all-acknowledging the glorious rainbow of humanity.

"Electronic writing shall inspire magic. Print writing shall inspire magic. Ways to heal."
Amen.

Why blog, darling?

Cause I want to express my deep feelings about one of my favorite topics-GGGRAPHIC design, darling! Do others feel this way? Am I floating alone on a sea of fonts? THis will be my place to show my illustrations too... I adore illustrationfriday.com and wish to show my work, which I haven't before. Thank you, darling!
