Time has been flying by, lately. I've been spending a ton of time just being a GRANDPA (barely a FOOL at all!), but we've still MADE STUFF constantly. I just haven't been sharing as much. (Sorry?? Maybe?) Here are SOME of the bits I have gotten around to plunking online...

"Ecstatic Spiral" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Felt pen on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments, color, and digital drawing.] The spiral from the top is also the spiral from the bottom... (Plus, I like the BEATLES. Can't ignore that fact...)

"Thump" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Liner pen and gel pen on notebook page with digital embellishments and color.] Creatures infiltrate. Creatures integrate...

"Moon and Star and Lines" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Photograph taken with my old, crappy phone. I like the yuckiness of the image. Makes it seem more-and-less real!] Not tonight. (I'm busy.)

"Public Speaking" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Felt pen, gel pen, mechanical pencil, and colored pencil on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments and color.] Gov'mint experiments in MIND CONTROL lead to an entire generation of people who turn into freaky monsters when in front of crowds (even if the "crowd" is completely virtual! Goodness!!)

"Deep Dive" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Felt pen, gel pen, liner pen, brush pen, and colored pencil on notebook page with minor digital embellishments and color tweaking.] I don't know. I think I just exploded onto the page... (I think that happens quite often!) Who you gonna call?
