On the square

A magical and whimsical piece of architecture that revels in its symmetry. The sepia coloration is attractive. The portrayal of clouds behind the tower is excellent. Shift your focus and the central area morphs into a strange face, like an automaton. Appealing, interesting and satisfying.

Wonderfully playful and creative. Simple yet enchanting, with profound philosophical overtones. I love the bright colors and the way the shadow cast by a push pin forms a clock hand. Here's an interesting mind at work.

The Inner Workings

Excitingly complicated. The lines weave together at all angles, softened by the clocks' generous curves. As a matter of fact, the choice to go black and white is almost forced by the need to enforce some order on this intricate Rube Goldbergesque scene. What intrigues me the most is the notion that the clock faces are eyes and the machinery the brain at work. A real treat.

This is so enjoyable! The man is sound asleep, and probably snoring, in this quasi-home/work environment, with a hubbub of details strewn about. The pair of clocks, about two minutes at odds, hang on the wall like sun and moon. The woman in the picture above him, in her pose, is in curious synch with him. Wires casually drape around the electrical warning labels. The eye dances among all this detail, yet it's pleasantly well-composed and harmoniously colored. The bars pull the viewer back and force him or her to be an observer at a remove, like at a zoo. It's hyper-modern Norman Rockwell. My favorite in the challenge and into my favorites it goes.

Cascades of laughter greet Ben Duck as he enters the Colosseum for the chariot race to determine the winner of Caligula's daughter's hand in marriage. Good luck!

An anxious moment as Mr. Raisin fears that Batduck's playful nibble on the ear has turned him rabid.

The new "Marking Time" diet is all the rage, preceded by a refreshing flute of chilled vitamin E capsules.

Spot What?

"Why couldn't I be spotting a moon pie, a jackknife, a harmonica, a packet of firecrackers and a puppy?"

Despite the hot nurse, Mr. Potato Head is having second thoughts about having an elective cosmetic lobotomy. "Maybe I just should have gone with the acne cream," he mused.
