Blogs are a wonderful way to record free associating on the net. They are also fantastic tools to search for 'found images' which you can reinterpret and represent in a completely fresh context. I started in Central America with Glyphs, then stumbled into tattoos and finally focused on Gay Cowboys; transforming them into more rarified etchings. Unfortunately you learn by your mistakes and having created two beautiful families of tattoos grouped under Lions & crucifixes I lost the lot!!

Glyphs
To make my blog more interesting and to learn more about the whole process of sourcing existing imagery held in the public domain on the net, I propose to research more collections of images, much like happy families that I could work on and develop as themes. The first of these will be on glyphs, because they are visually exciting and it is an area I know nothing about.
