Getting it Taped

The recent months have been spent  – when time – with Krista on our usual outings, climbing, walking and biking. I have begun to run uphill again with poles to support my lacking balance going downhill. There I prefer to walk though. I would call my present mountaineering style “scrambling and shuffling”. It’s going to be the new hype for the golden agers 😂😂😂. (Deutsch: “Kraxeln und Schleichen”). 

The enclosed pics show the my momentary graphic experiments. Just sketching outdoors is getting boring. Really it’s all about a kind of “fragmented memory”. So I now mix sketches with photos which I sometimes mistreat by soaking the prints in alcohol (no the photos, not myself) and using them as collages, or painting over the prints or…? I could do all that easily with photoshop or the like, but I want to do things more “hands on” now. As opposition to digital domination.

And I’m getting things taped in my visual stories. Washi ist what it is. Very dangerous, because it’s so pretty.
