"The Legend in Her Eyes" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

the legend in her eyes.jpg

[Mixed media collage plus some Sharpie embellishments and minor color tweaking...] I love postcards. I like buying them, sending them, getting them in the mail, and MAKING them... This is a hand-cut postcard that I assembled a few days ago when my wife and I were chilling out in the backyard and doing some collaging. SOMEONE is going to receive this postcard in the MAIL, too! I only have ONE (cuz it's a unique, physical work), so WHO - somewhere in the entire world - will get this??? ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

"Ghost on Purple" by RFY (HF)

ghost on purple.png

[Paint pen, felt pen, and glitter glue on construction paper with digital embellishments and color.] Ghosts are probably NOT the spirits of deceased humans (or animals) but, instead, are more likely non-corporeal creatures that take the form of something or someONE who a potential viewer would recognize and understand. (If the physical appearance is TOO alien, human cognition tends to filter out the vision or reframe it as something the viewer can relate to, as with the Roman soldiers who reported seeing glowing "SHIELDS" in the sky over a battlefield. Today, we would call them U.A.P.s) This ghost is probably a hideous creature that has change its appearance so that I could capture the vision in a meaningful way... Probably... ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

"Freedom Chant" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

freedom chant.jpg

[Words produced with a word processor program, computer screen photographed with my phone, with minor digital tweaking for readability...] Alan Moore says that to spell is a spell! If the words that a person writes (or says) change the world (or change minds), isn't that magick??? ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

[Coco Pebble juice and ballpoint pen on notebook with digital embellishments and color.] My granddaughter inadvertently contributed to this piece by slopping a Coco Pebble onto a page of my notebook. I flicked it off, but when it dried, it left a "ghost." I gave it a face, then added some digital color... Why not? ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
