Things To Be Revived

I’ve resuscsitated my instagram account.

The feed is below. There are pretty things, ugly things, arty things. Things to be considered. Things to be dissolved. Things to be appreciated. Things to be discovered. Things to be reworked. Things to be Things.

Things to Be.

#TBT | Things That Arouse A Fond Memory of the Past*

I probably have a pic of a paper fan somewhere in my #projectobso archives. I’ve already re-rolled out one image, why not perchance a pretty fan?
Instagram is the perfect form for quick consumption and spontaneous combustion.

#Reluctant | Things I Am Reluctant to Share

  • Slingshot. Behind on my posting for #the100dayproject . In the meantime been drawing Bart. . #bartsimpson #contourlinedrawing #100daysofpossibleoutcomes #cartooncharacter #thesimpsons #canadianartist #femaleartist #artistsoninstagram
  • Antidote for lunatics. May 16, 1938. #tbt to a QR blog I did as part of a #publicart project for the city of Vancouver. This was Day 1. The project was called PierD. There was a window installation at the skytrain downtown Canada Line. May post that next week, or Even revive all the posts (especially the invisible ones ) here. . Also fits with my #100daysofpossibleoutcomes . . “Go on, my dear Americans, whip your horses to the utmost—Excitement; money! politics!—open all your valves and let her go—going, whirl with the rest—you will soon get under such momentum you can’t stop if you would. Only make provision betimes, old States and new States, for several thousand insane asylums. You are in a fair way to create a nation of lunatics.” – Walt Whitman . . #canadianartist #femaleartist #waltwhitman #pink #lunatics #qrcodes #mediaworks #artistsoninstagram
