I don't know why I think you care about this, but I'm burning a new CD to play in the backyard. One of my daughters bought me a rechargeable CD player for my berfday, and now, that stack of unused, blank CD-Rs is looking too tempting to pass up! Here's what I added to the mix.

"Books Can Be Moments" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Paint pen on red, photocopied paper with minor digital embellishments, mostly to help make it look worse!] I've been making a TON of mini-zines, lately, especially these little, single-sheet, 8 pagers, which are super-simple to craft, but can be surprisingly detailed when filled. I'm not saying any of them are GOOD, but I'm committed to the whole "BAD ART" gig. Do your thing the way you enjoy doing it!!! (OR, you know, be destroyed...)

"The Terror of Unreality"
[Ballpoint gel pen on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments and color.] This is not a flower, but it also IS a flower. It SIGNIFIES a flower, except it doesn't ALWAYS signify anything in particular. It just IZ. (Until itz gone...)

[Felt pen, gel pen, paint pen, colored pencil, sticker collage, and tape on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments and color.] This handmade postcard says that I should "Be Happy Today." I hate when cardboard tells me what to do!
