Gold Marilyn

Happy 100th installment of mah blog!

(Andy Warhol, Gold Marilyn, 1962)


So, frequent contributor Regina and I both made versions of Carlos Schwabe's La mort du fossoyeur, and I can't decide which one I want to post. Then it occurred to me that as the Symbolists are so much fun to mess around with, maybe this would be an excellent opportunity for a contest? I really have no idea how many people read this blog, nor how many more would want to do such a thing, but let's give it a few weeks and see what happens. The picture is thus:

(Click for a larger version.) A couple suggestions: I use Impact font for all of mine, as that seems to be kind of a standard, at least for those that make these on PCs. Some creative use of word processing programs and judicious cut-and-paste suffices for almost all of the ones you see on this site. And you can send your submissions to stoptouchtell at gmail dot com. I'll keep reminding people for a while about it, and I'm curious to see what happens. Happy macroing!
