Celyn Brazier

Ruben Brulat

Steven LaRose
(his weblog title is: Fish and Cut Bait)

Steven LaRose was formerly my art teacher, but currently he teaches art privately in his studios in southern Oregon. LaRose's genre of art spans nudes, photography, oils, watercolours and other types of artistic interest.

Brazier and Brulat are relatively new to me - I found both artists while browsing gallery art via open-network resources.

I like all three artists - the visual cachet that each artists brings into their form of art.

Today, while wandering the internet in search of ideas for artistic ways of using postcards to form a work of art (a collage), I found the above hand-made postcard that was given to someone on their birthday. I love postcards and have quite a few that I have given to friends and family and have recieved numerous postcards, over time.

Once in a great while, I actually happen to come across exhibits of postcards as an art form: There's an interesting place to dine in the Hawthorne area (Nick's) and along the wall of the business, postcards to the business owner (over the years) appear alongside of other exhibits of art.

I think the thing I like about a collage of postcards is that each post card tells about a specific time someone took the time to express something particular (or even peculiar) between the sender and sendee. I have a friend who saved every single post card they got from someone they knew from years ago (I think they attended art school together, at one time) and I even have a friend who uses photographs, sent to them, as a means to create an exhibit of art - either at home or wherever their form of art is displayed (museums or galleries or places where art like this is found).

Given that I like postcards and have quite a few, I was thinking of making my own collage of postcard art.
