Poor Little Glad Rag Doll

Flash fiction, Video, Virtual Photography

Teagan and I are on a break from Hullaba Lulu this week.

We both have busy weeks; I have a friend in surgery
today and a guest arrives from Vancouver next week.

Then there is the effect of the Trump administration
on my Illness and its symptoms.

That’s a discussion I take up in my next post.

If you are an adult child of a pathological narcissist and you are not
affected by the diseased behavior of the Trump administration,
you’re still in denial.

Lucky you!  🙂

In the meantime, here is a link to some angels on Teagan’s books.

A quick explanation of the video:

I was intrigued with the idea of the danger of entering the world of a painting in Chapter Eight of Hullaba Lulu. So, I played with it by importing a few public domain copies of the Pittura Metafisica paintings of de Chirico and Arnaldo dell’Ira.

 

I chose “Piazza d’Italia,”by Arnaldo dell’Ira,  1934, as the backdrop and used a script to set it in motion, I prefer to use dynamic backdrops.

The audio is an excerpt from ‘Glad Rag Doll’ as performed in 1929 by the
Rose  Wood Orchestra.  

You can get a copy at the Internet Archives.

  1. Sadly, tRump has become a symptom for so many. But looks like the uprising has begun. He’s getting called out left and right, dems and rethugs alike. It’s coming!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂

  3. I thought I left you a comment on one of your posts, but it went onto a post your reblogged instead. It was my mistake. I thought I was talking to you. It must have confused the author of the post who doesn’t know me from Adam, just like this comment is probably confusing you. Ah well, I try, so sorry!
    I love your and Teagan’s creative collaboration! Wonderful! You two are rocking good bloggers!
    And Le Trump, well, he gives me acid reflux, and his narcissistic daughter extension who I cannot diagnose since I haven’t met her so I wouldn’t dare, gives me gas.
    They are the white house indigestion inducing duo, Pep and Cid.

  4. I love that part about entering the paintings, Rob, and want to do just that. How cool would that be? I’m so glad you picked up on it for some of your artwork. And yes, Trump is making us all ill whether we accept the truth or not. I hope your friend recovers quickly, and enjoy your time with your guest. 🙂

  13. Reblogged this on Teagan's Books and commented:

    Artist, Rob Goldstein illustrates the diesel-punk fantasy series, Hullaba Lulu. He often creates art that runs parallel to the series. Rob is supposed to be taking a break, but he still did this a post and great video as part of the “Lulu-verse.”
