Description
This is the first assemblage piece I've ever done that wasn't just an experiment. Done Sept 2005. However, I was still figuring things out in this one. I've developed a lot since then stylistically. Zoomed details of this image at [link]{Assemblage using plywood, acrylic paint, media clippings, cardboard, paper towels, masking tape, pencil, and fabric}

You remind me of Rauschenberg.... but, you know, with your own distinct style.

wow, that's a big compliment, since Rauschenberg was my hugest influence at first. He's still my favorite artist of recognized notariety.

Hehe, sounds interesting and quite hard to achieve. But with your skills I'm pretty sure it's going to come out just fine!!
You're one of the many artists I like for their incredible originality of their deviations. Great job.

Finally a DD that's actually ART. Not to mention that it was submitted by a person whose success comes through talent and not by his page views. This is a really great painting man, you kept it subtle, yet attention-grabbing. You got it all here. Nice.

woah-ho! possibly the best comment all day! thank you much!
not to sound conceited at all (hopefully) but i'm constantly frustrated at how some people with little talent and/or ingenuity can become so "successful" in the dA community. until today, i've had very little activity on my site. it's not like i'm not active or anything... but thanks so much. "subtle yet attention-grabbing" is exactly what i want to hear!

Really? Because ... I just made that up
I'm out of the weird mood I was in when I left those comments so I can't think of a witty remark right now...hmp.
Anyway you should tell that to Dr Suess. He seemed to get more of his fair share of drugs and ham
(well I don't know about the ham, really)

I will not eat them, Sam I Am.
I will not eat them with the band.
I will not eat them on fine-grained sand.
I will not eat them with a can of deviantART spam.
I will not eat those drugs and ham!

Wowza
You're also a poet?!?
I'm so impressed.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well, this is no poetry... or my style of it... i do dabble in some creative writing, mostly poetry, or i have. lately i've been in too good of a mood, haha, nothing depressing to pull my emotions out. i may or i may not post poetry on devART. probably with time.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
mm yes I have dabbled myself as well (in poetry but I'm mainly a fiction writer). I like reading others' work so perhaps we could exchange and discuss some time?

Sweet!! Other than emails, I use MSN and I also love receiving Notes here on dA. So it's your preference.
