A Dark Horse Collage
DOH!!!
Here's to you Katy Perry:
This collage piece is made up of 4 different songs.
Katy Perry's "Dark Horse" (the scenario), Tom Petty's "Just a face in the crowd" (swoon), Prince's "Purple Rain" (warning) and Annie Herring's "Sing Over Me". Just 'another story' playing out hard.
So what's a dark horse?
HMMM 'a little unknown person or thing that emerges to prominence." "a contestant that seems unlikely to succeed unexpectantly wins."
Perfect Storm: "an expression that describes some event where a rare combination of circumstances will aggravate a situation drastically." "a detrimental or calamitous situation or event arising from the powerful combined effect of a unique set of circumstances." SO DON"T FORGET THAT CALAMITOUS.
The TERM is used to describe an actual phenomenon that happens to occur in such a confluence, resulting in an event of unusual magnitude.
The METAPHOR is that of a synergy of forces leading to a release of energy much greater than its individual contributors would ever generate, but the storm part, i.e. the energy release is DESTRUCTIVE, [but probably not?]
Purple Rain (C/- Prince) The rain that comes after judgement. Quote from His Royal Badness tour "When there's blood in the sky - red and blue = purple. Purple rain pertains to the end of the world and being with the one you love and letting your faith/God guide you through the purple rain." Prince was into apolcalyptism in recording his song Purple Rain. It was about him receiving judgement if he took another man's lover.

Xmas Book Nutcracker Pages 1 - 19
Compiling this book took up most of my Christmas holidays. This book matches the Nutcracker Christmas Toy Theatre/Diorama I have completed. It basically has the script/story line for the Nutcracker and also has the paper doll images and toy theatre placenames for future reference. So my kids are way too old for this now. But I got it done.
