Just beginning the long, cold descent into another dark night of the soul...followed by another long wintery week of work. Fiddlesticks, harrumph and yawn.
I've been entertaining myself today by busting out a few collages, even though I should have been working on that albatross of a job application. The fact is when 'the muse' speaks one is as powerless to resist as the ancient Greeks were to the sirens' song, try as I might to tie myself to the bed and drip melted wax into my ears...
Below are the fruits of my labour, with thanks to my favourite store, St Vincent De Paul, Katoomba branch. That hour I spent over Christmas feverishly leafing through vintage wildlife & train periodicals and the $3 I eventually spent turning out to be a wise investment indeed. Yawn.
Nice works Manhands - good to see Vinnies in Katoomba is still receiving your patronage on your visits back! Have you seen this show? Assume you probably have seeing as he's down with the postcard style collage...
