A Bit Art Historic

London Fog Crib

This one is a bit Rene Magritte.  The black of the crib reminds me of the soot on old London buildings.  It doesn't seem to be too thematically dark for a baby crib, but some might disagree.

Sleep Schedule - Wooden Tape Ruler

This one reminds me of an old wooden (tape-type) ruler that my dad had in the garage when I was growing up.  It folded on itself and I don't know what it would have been called.  Maybe something like "carpenter's ruler"? The yellows and greens look old to me, which reminds me of an earlier time.  The flat, dull background adds to that effect as well.  Milk paint comes to mind.

Sleep Schedule - Down At, Up At

Here are two ArtRages combined with images from the Internet based on a sculpture that I have been working on in my head for many years.  It reflects my obsessive documentation of my daughter's sleep schedule in my journals.  The words on theses cribs are lifted directly from the years when my daughter was born.
