Spring and Easter-inspired digital collage portraying Sparks' Ron and Russell Mael in their 1993 personas. The latter holds a chocolate Easter egg with a flower pattern. Teal background with a yellow sun on the right and a flock of white doves on the left.

"Spring Medley," digital collage. Of course, I forgot to post here. I suppose Easter isn't quite over yet, though. :-)

Digital collage depicting Sparks' Russel Mael, in his 1974 persona, sitting on the Equator line as he waits for the song's elusive belle. Black background with white stars and withered roses.

I meant to create something for Equator Day, but work deadlines interfered. Here's a little something from two years ago.

The October page for my Sparks calendar, featuring one of my digital collage pieces. The collage features Russell Mael in the classic black and white Pierrot costume with a ruched collar, white face and black mascara tears rolling down his cheek, standing in the middle of a black and white dancefloor with a solitary disco ball hanging from the ceiling. I like to think that if the Black Lodge had a dancefloor, it might look somewhat like this.

And with Sparkstember now over, here's my #calendarclub entry for October. @bsky.art

July page from my Sparks calendar, with one of my collage pieces depicting Ron and Russell Mael as a devil and angel, as per the video to the Plagiarism version of The N° 1 Song in Heaven.

And I've managed to completely forget about my calendar entry due to the excitement of Sparks' Mad! tour. I'd better post my July page before the month is over. 😆

End of the EU/UK leg of the tour. When you spend half a mad hour googling flights from Scotland to Vancouver before you realise it really, really wouldn't be a sensible idea. 🙄
