Rube's Cube

I'm a bit of a closet cubist. Although I guess I've done enough of these that I'm out already. Here are a few.






Just a few words about the piece above. This work was done on an old end table top I rescued from the trash. If you look at the back, you can instantly dope out the humble, domestic origins of this "canvas". It was just the right size, weight (as in heavy and solid), and offered a dense, hardwood surface—perfect to apply layers of tissue collage with gesso primer, then scrub paint and grind oil pastels.

LOGO Madness

When I initially began this blog AGES ago, I had a fine, fun time fooling with the logo for the Narrative Art concept. Eventually I decided on the title treatment you see on the masthead, BUT I did like all the (then) current concepts (and I was leaning harder towards # 2 from the top, though).

Typical... maybe I will juggle the title treatment as a running design gag, or do a poll and folks could tell me which logo they prefer on the masthead for a given time. If I can get anybody to see this blog! Hmmm...
