SkullyFlower

Another thing I like: SkullyFlower

I met the artist, Dragon Green, at a not-very-successful art festival(*), and I bought the SkullyFlower books. I suppose the writing could use some polishing, but folks who like NerkyMarg's surreal observational comics will probably enjoy this too.

Oh, and Dragon has terrific merchandise. Seriously—If your daughter is not wearing hand-made felt SkullyFlower barrettes, what kind of parent are you?

(*) Note to artists: Publicity. It's not a dirty word.

Notes on Photography

I'd like to point my photo-geek readers to Notes on Photographs, a new website hosted by the George Eastman House here in Rochester, NY. The site is a curated wiki focusing on print photography, particularly on conservation and authentication of art photography. The project has been under development for about five years, but the Eastman House is just beginning to throw its considerable weight behind it. You can read more about the origin and purpose of the project on their "about" page.
