I like the cuckold suggestion, that resonates with me.
I was in the heart of Glasgow today and studying the skies assiduously, but didn't see one bit of Iceland overhead - it was the worst affected airport, allegedly.
Also fascinated by the hairstyle behind the mask. It looks so big!
Regarding the Icelandic ash... Nice to see the skies quiet in some ways... Weirdly, there was a funny smell in town, I don't know if it's psychological but someone else, completely separately, mentioned they'd thought the same when they were out and about. A couple of times I thought it was passers-by, haha!
Regarding your work, I like this, but especially so as you draw directly onto it and don't use Photoshop!
the branching the branching...where will it take us...
this is probably what will happen to my students when i introduce them to literature next and have them try to decide who's right, who's wrong in August Strindberg's 2-page gem-of-a-play: The Stronger...I CAN'T WAIT!!!
Whoa, Susan. Is this the rebellious spirit lurking deep within the conformist? Puts me in mind of Masque of the Red Death. Subversive!
They tell us the volcano's big brother might erupt next. And there might be a food shortage. Now, if all 60 million Brits gathered together at Cape Wrath and blew THAT way...
Love this piece. So whimsical! I started a new project and I would be truly honoured if you considered participating. It's called <a href="http://createthreesixty5.com/>createthreesixty5.com</a>; "Perfection is overrated, it's all about the process." I hope you'll drop by!

I've just finished Mr. Y, and think I'm a little frightened by the idea of thought as matter.
gorgeous piece, I love the red.
Looks like... a relative of a lead reindeer?
(Loved your tale of re-appropriation on my blog--thanks!)
Susan, is this created with photoshop or are you drawing on a copy of the old photograph with pen and ink or...?
CG - I'm drawing directly on the photograph. More risk.
Becharmed thought!
What is he thinking about - his wife being unfaithful...? "ein gehörnter Mann" is an (old fashioned) expression in German for that...
This tragic condition brought about because he was trying to figure out the tax code...
Incredible! That's how I feel sometimes.
Thank you for your comment. I do love the way you write your mind, this is so helpful! Please keep on.
Good. I'd be so depressed to learn you were using Photoshop.
Cool mask. I'd like to have that one for Mardi gras
Eva - As for "write your mind", I learn from the best...
Gene- Heh.
Clowncar- we are a sensitive bunch around here, that's for sure.
Charles....Hmm, masks, that reminds me of an idea...
Ah... lost in the branches of the forest of the mind. I know how he feels.

Thanks for the report, Titus...the perils of an imaginative mind.

i'm digging this piece, S. inspiring!
All flights in and out of the UK, and quite a bit of Europe, grounded. One lovely optimistic scientist on the news saying it could "last for months".
Should make for some good sunsets, however.
No perils in an imaginative mind, surely?
Titus...More like ALL perils in an imaginative mind.
He's got scary yes.Take him away!
Can't see ash but the air does seem taste funny, could be my imagination , or the neighbours chimney.
I bet Lost has been in your thoughts lately... (sorry, Susan: couldn't help!)

JJ- I saw that as a worst-case scenario early on. We'll have to hope that does not happen.
Fabulous
Good

the ash isn't obvious at all at any time, to us in London...
the sky is beautifully clear and blue.
and wonderfully quiet
