He also provides collage imagery for <em>Wake the Zine<\/em> (risograph periodical about arts and music in Galveston, Texas).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When he was a child, his first art class involved cutting out pictures from magazines and drawing to &#8220;complete the picture&#8221;. At the time it seemed ridiculous to him. How was he to draw a photo realistic image with crayons??<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Twenty years later, he first observes the difference between today&#8217;s magazines and the colors\/perspective of an old <em>Life Magazine<\/em>. This led him to realize he might be able to frame old images in an attractive way to draw attention to them for today\u2019s viewer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>BIO<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Charlie Don&#8217;t is a failed poet, failed painter, cinema enthusiast, resolute musician, electronics tinkerer, publisher, and determined collage artist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ARTIST CONTACT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"mailto:\" target=\"_blank\">click to email<\/a>]<br>(832) 285-2697<br><a href=\"http:\/\/charliedontpaint.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">charliedontpaint.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>IMAGES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/charlie-dont-Peanuts.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"700\" height=\"696\" src=\"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/charlie-dont-Peanuts.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11359\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/charlie-dont-Peanuts.jpg 700w, https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/charlie-dont-Peanuts-300x298.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/charlie-dont-Peanuts-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/charlie-dont-Peanuts-210x209.jpg 210w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Peanuts<\/em><br>10&#8243;x10&#8243;;
