Tag it.

I have to admit I'm a sucker for office supplies. Folder, pens, notebooks, clips, file cards..... they make me believe I can actually be neat and organized in life and in art. For about five seconds. Then I begin pondering how I can mess them up, alter them, splatter paint and glue on them, and scribble randomly with or on them.
And one of my favorite office supplies is the tag. I imagine them tied to boxes and suitcases with obscure markings identifying the objects inside or the destination they are going. But when I purchased a packet of tags recently I just saw their creamy, untouched surface and decided to play with texture, print, colour, and collage.

Here are are the 15 of 20 I have completed so far:

And some previously done tags from my Moleskine sketchbook:

I don't know yet what I have planned for them. I suppose I could buy a folder to keep them in. Or put them in a box with a tag on it saying "Tags". But that would be way too organized.
