A Monday. Elvis had the day off, so I'm not on RIOT DUTY until tomorrow. Mariah has asked me to fold some clothes. I will do that. But first, I'm going to share an artz or two. Yah? Yah...

[Felt pen, gel pen, paint pen, and colored pencil on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments and color.] Mariah helped me with this piece, probably with the physical part before I photographed it and added the digital embellishments!

"That's Me" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Ballpoint pen on notebook page with minor digital embellishments.] The funniest thing, of course, is that THIS is NOT me. I am not now, nor have I ever been, a lumberjack!

"Razor Burn (Buzzed) (Just Burn)" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Digital drawing created with MS Paint on my new laptop!] The world is made of tiny, monstrous, pulsating bits of almost-matter and tons of empty space... With razor burn...

"Document the Mundane" by RFY (HF) & RSRW
[Ballpoint pen, gel pen, crayon, colored pencil, packing tape, and sticker collage on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments and color!] Yep. I said it. Document the mundane aspects of your life. Someday, they will be exotic, if not to you, then to whomever comes after!!!

"Wurm" by RFY (HF) & RSRW
[Felt pen, gel pen, tape, and sticker collage on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments and color.] In the WURM GLACIATION, most Disco-ologists agree, is when the MIRROR BALL (also called a DISCO BALL) first evolved. These tiny creatures, in a resource rich environment, can grow to nearly a meter-and-a-half in diameter, and fossilized MIRROR BALL remains are highly prized, in certain circles, for their shiny scales and reflective nature. It is believed that the last NATURAL specimen died in captivity in 1981, but of course genetically engineered MIRROR BALL CLONES are now readily available in "MALLS" and other occult gathering spaces that most cultists tend to frequent... (P.S. - The cool skull stickers where not by me but are by a Portland artist whose name I have, horrifyingly, forgotten! I need to write things down more quickly...)

"Fo T Ath" by RFY (HF) & RSRW
[Felt pen, gel pen, brush pen, metallic marker, and tape on printed coloring-book page!] Riot and I take a calm, somewhat pedestrian scene from a mid-tier drama, and we make it into a psychedelic, horror, sci-fi EPIC! Can you take the HEAT???

"Be Brave" by RFY (HF) & RSRW
[Felt pen, gel pen, sticker collage, packing tape, and toy duck on paper, cardboard, and wood floor with digital embellishments and color.] This is one of the pages in a crazy zine that Riot and I made (with tape!) I'm happy with this image, and YOU are happy that it exists, as well. (If not now, then you will in the DREAMTIME...)
