Don't bounce. It's bad for the ankles...

"Smiling Eyes" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Gel pen, felt pen, and sticker collage on paper with digital embellishments and color.] This is the "cover image" (minus the digital stuff) that I created for a mini-zine, which I haven't finished making, yet. These things take time... (Especially when you're/I'm fragmented and swimming in distraction!) (Excuses, excuses, excuses... If I really WANTED to do it, I'd have found a way to finish the dang thing...)

"Message for the Initiated" by RFY (Holy Fool) & RSRW
[Digital photograph of a concrete poem caste in plastic and carpeting. Some digital swishing on the image, as well.] Riot and I know how to make the FAITHFUL feel good! (What happens if NO ONE has been initiated? Only time will tell...)

"Positive Self Talk" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Ballpoint pen, sticker collage, and tape on notebook page with digital embellishments and color.] I jabber to myself in cartoons all the time. Perhaps it helps! (???)

"Video Nasty" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Gel pen on notebook page with digital embellishments and color!] Are there still "videos" that are classified as "NASTIES??" How does that work with streaming and/or digital purchases? I just don't know...

"Potato Headed Lizard Monkey" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Felt pen, gel pen, and brush pen reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments and color.] Traveling sideshow attractions used to be much more fun. Now, they're like, "Oh, look at this funny carrot," or "My cat has a beard..." What happened to hoaxers with a bit of CREATIVITY??

"Only Seen Two Dead People" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Felt pen, gel pen, and pencil on notebook page with minor digital embellishment...] This is from my notebook from many months ago when I went to watch a local ROCK SHOW. My generation is dying off, which is pretty normal, but because of the way my brain works, I still see the folks that I EXPECT to see when I go out... It happens...

"Deep Nothing" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Gel pen, paint pen, and colored pencil on black notebook page with digital embellishments and color tweaking.] My "Anti-Intelligence" model has been trained on DEEP NOTHING! (TRADEMARKED) I fed it no information, intentionally, and just scribbled in a book with a bunch of pens that other people chose and bought for me! The results speak for themselves and for a few people who spend very little time outside...

"Gotta Scratch Um All!" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Crayon and felt pen on reclaimed coloring-book page with digital embellishments and color.] Who remembers SCRATCH-AND-SNIFF stickers!?!? When I was a youngster (in the pre-Internet days), novelty items often tried to appeal to more than one sense at a time! Gosh! Talk about overwhelming!!!

Okay, people! I'm going to go do something else now... Probably work on some zines or something... Maybe? Perhaps???
