Caffeinated Gonzo!

Check out creations by artist Peter Callesen such as this one all created out of a single sheet of paper. Now that’s what I call recycling! Amazing stuff!

I can barely make a decent paper airplane.

To this viewer the composition entirely representative of the vastness (and nature) of life and death in New Mexico and the southwest.

This beautiful photograph’s simple composition brings to my mind’s eye many of the colors of my own experience of New Mexico.

[Excess baggage, original photography created by Miss Aniela.]

The mysterious mood and lighting of this self-portrait by Miss Aniela evokes some interesting questions. Among them:

“Is she escaping or emerging?”

“If she is escaping, then from what?”

“Where is she going?

or better yet…

“Where did she come from?”

See this portrait entitled “Excess Baggage” and more by Miss Aniela on Flickr.

An old friend from back in the Denton days finally contacted me after years once I posted an appeal to hear from her on the blog. Lori Amor as she has been known for some time now, can be found on the Net here on her personal site from way back and also can been found at her more recently updated artist blog.

Lori is an American artist who has been living in the UK for several years since university. Some of her work can be be found online here and here as well. Primarily into conceptual art, Lori has some interesting projects in the bag and in the works.

From a personal perspective I would add that it appear that unlike many of us, Lori, years after rearrange her life in order to pursue a dream, she has definately done something unique with hers. Congratulations on that Lori. I wish you all the success in the world. I hope to be in touch soon to tell you more directly how nice it is to see you “out there.”
