Macro Monday: Pencils, Pens, Erasers and/or Paperclips.

The flame in the distance is from Grangemouth oil refinery which is just over the horizon.

""Appearances can be deceiving. These classical columns, at the gallery’s entrance, might appear hewn from marble, but are actually made of paper.

In Column Shred (2015), Christian Andersson (1973) creates a classic trompe l’oeil effect (optical illusion). It is the shadow drawn on six hanging floor-to-ceiling prints in particular, that make the illusion of colossal volumes so convincing.

Although the work has a two-dimensional structure, the artist plays with the third dimension both in drawing as well as in space. This creates a stage for the viewer in which Christian can write his story.""

'Column Shred' is one of the artworks of the exhibition "LISTEN TO YOUR EYES" in the museum Voorlinden (Wassenaar, The Netherlands).

Smile On Saturday: "Copy-Collage" theme

The challenge for this theme was to "use only one photo and edit it in different ways to create your collage."

This triptych shows a closeup photo of shredded paper. The photo on the left is the original shot; the center image is the same image with the colors inverted; and on the right side is a painterly version of the photo processed in the style of Georgia O'Keeffe (if she ever were to paint shredded paper...LOL!).

If you zoom in two clicks, you can read some of the words and numbers in the shredded paper at left and in the center, but not on the right.

Inspiration from a boring task. The theme was underneath for Macro Mondays. I did not have a clue until I started shredding paperwork.

HMM to all.

It pleases me when I get hold of an unusual tulip. This one looks like it's been through the shredder.

“It is necessary for me to see the first point of light that begins to be dawn. It is necessary to be present alone at the resurrection of Day in solemn silence at which the sun appears, for this moment all the affairs of cities, of governments, of war departments, are seen to be the bickering of mice. I receive from the Eastern woods, the tall oaks, the one word DAY. It is never the same. It is always in a totally new language.”

- Thomas Merton from Journals, May 1965 and from A Year with Thomas Merton selected and edited by Jonathan Montaldo

Shot years ago in Detroit, apparently the driver thought it unsafe to stop and change the tire...unless that person didn't have a tire to spare.

Brandelli di memorie

I picked through the shredded-paper bin to find a few colorful pieces for this week's Smile on Saturday theme: "Selfmade Smiley."

Red Tail Shredding prey.

My Grandfather's Ribbon and Medal, approximately 103 years old. It was given to returning US Troops at the end of WW 1.

Originally blue and gold, the ribbon has deteriorated greatly and faded. The angel with wings and halo is holding a shield in one hand and a sword in the other.

On the reverse side is a list of the 12 Allied countries surrounding a US shield with the words, "THE GREAT WAR FOR CIVILIZATION" across the top.

I was thinking of a background for this Ribbon/Medal, but didn't want to do 'black.' So while I was shredding papers and CD's and ready to empty the bin, I had the idea that this was an appropriate setting for the shredded ribbon.

The Ribbon is now back in my memory box.

For Smile on Saturday

Theme: Ribbons

this is a juvenile bald eagle, i believe just less than a year old. new tail feather on backorder.

According to Flickr mapping this was west of Defiance, Ohio.
