On the other hand, I came to the realization that I still had a lot to say about art, especially my approach to the century-old medium of collage. Whether the world needs yet another blog is a point I won\u2019t question here. All I know is that I apparently need another, and so, if you\u2019re interested, I direct you to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.xorph.com\/jadixon\/\">The Collage Miniaturist<\/a>. The main purpose, I have no problem admitting, is to showcase my collage artwork. That\u2019s the selfish part. In addition, I have a strong desire to formulate and share a coherent attitude toward what it is and why I do it. I would hope that it also becomes a point of reference for others who create or appreciate the medium. That\u2019s all I\u2019ll say today. The rest of it can be found at TCM. We\u2019ll see what becomes of it, by and by. I still need to add a mechanism for transacting sales, but I might as well begin to write and display images. Wish me luck. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.xorph.com\/jadixon\"><img src='http:\/\/www.xorph.com\/uj\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/dixon_tcm.jpg' title='ruminations on juxtapositions by J A Dixon' alt='The Collage Miniaturist' \/><\/a><br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Something occurred to me not that long ago, and I may have mentioned it here: Many of the most important things I\u2019ve wanted to express through this personal journal already have been set down in this seven-year record.
