in a sort of twisted way, it's a relief to be back in this photography class, digging into my imagination again.
at the same time, it makes my quest for balance all the more difficult.
AWAKE is a completely original stained glass window panel has been constructed in the traditional leaded and glazed technique. The vibrant cherry red and gold glass is bordered by crystal clear glass with lead overlays.
This piece has my "signature" solder sculpted frame and has a black patina surface treatment.
AWAKE, measures 20.75" wide x 23.75" high and is ready to hang with an attached chain.
A very sophisticated window for elegant tastes.

Being much more aware of all the hijinks around privacy invasion of the average citizen with electronic media, and businesses employing data mining.
Update: These have been sent in, so no changes will really be made (although I went back and re-kerned 12th because it was bugging the heck out of me). Still, feel free to leave any feedback for future note.
BACKGROUND:
So this is a SUPER QUICK project (It'll be in by tonight/tomorrow) but I still wanted to toss it up and give feedback. These are three different options (this one, "produce," and "timeline") for the same project. I plan on showing all three of them, so help on strengthening any of the three is welcome.
The only guidelines I was given: Easter sermon (series) called Come Awake. Based on Eph 5:14. Make an invite people can give to their friends.
Don't have time to shoot images, or want to pay for stock. Also, if you have any suggestions for better copy, I have total control over that and can change it. Don't have time to make a ton of changes, and I will be sending them all free, but feel free to crit away if anyone is surfing around the Lab on a Sunday afternoon :)
This Comp:
Wanted to play off the idea of waking up twice on Easter. Waking up in the morning and "waking up" at church that day. Simple type. Placed the clouds in there and they kinda stuck.
I added some notes with the copy in them in case you can't read the text.

Tom Otterness (b. 1952 in Wichita, Kansas) is an American sculptor whose works adorn parks in New York---
most notably in Rockefeller Park in Battery Park City and in the 14th Street/8th Avenue subway station---and other cities around the world. His style is very cartoonish and cheerful, and the forms of his sculptures often consist of many blobs and pipes, giving them a humorous look. These sculptures depict, among other things, huge pennies, pudgy characters in business suits with moneybag heads, helmeted workers holding giant tools, and crocodiles crawling out from under sewer covers. The main theme of his work seems to be the struggle of the little man against the Capitalist machine in a difficult and strange city.
As primarily a public artist, Otterness' has shown popular exhibitions in locations across the United States, including New York City, Indianapolis, and Beverly Hills. His studio is located in the DUMBO neighborhood in Brooklyn.
His most recent exhibition of public sculpture in Grand Rapids, Michigan is his largest to date, featuring more than 40 works across two miles of the city's downtown area and at Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park.
Otterness is best known to New Yorkers for his "Life Underground" series of sculptures, which are primarily located in the 14th St/8th Avenue subway station, which was commissioned in 2000 and fully installed by 2002.
Journalist Gary Indiana criticized Otterness for an independent work done while part of the East Village art scene in the mid-eighties called "Shot Dog Piece", in which Otterness allegedly "adopted a dog and then shot it to death for the fun of recording his infantile, sadistic depravity on film." When student Matthew Goad, a candidate for student government president at Wichita State University, learned of this act, Wichita State began questioning a USD$450,000 commission, which would cost an additional USD$150,000 for shipping, however, at present it looks as if the project continued may as planned. Otterness commented that "In 1977, I was a young artist having a very rough time. I had anger at myself and at the world. What I did was symbolic of how I was feeling internally and it is something I would never do today.

The common yellowthroat lives up to its name. It is one of the more numerous warblers in New Brunswick. As such I don't usually fuss with these guys too much, but this particular bird was quite insistent. He was on a wonderful perch in great light so I felt obligated to take his picture!
An interesting fact about common yellowthroats is each male normally has only one mate in his territory during a breeding season. However, a female’s mating calls often attract other males, and she may mate with them behind her mate’s back.
I photographed this guy along the shore of the Bay of Fundy at the beautiful Irving Nature Park in Saint John, New Brunswick.

"letting go gives us freedom, and freedom is the only condition for happiness. if, in our heart, we still cling to anything - anger, anxiety, or possessions - we cannot be free"
-Thich Nhat Hanh
that was an excerpt from a book called The Heart of the Buddha's Teaching i've been reading. finish the first Hunger Games but hasn't had time to start on the second one yet. i am still clinging on to my goal of not tending to any media an hour before bed time (eg., tv, computer.) it's been working out really great! with all the events that i been going through this past week today was a much needed relaxation.
courage is the power of letting go of the familiar...
Just got finish with the Awake season 1 series, AND IT WAS AWESOME!!
It´s a shame there wont be a season 2...... Got the inspiration from the series, and a little bit from www.flickr.com/photos/aknacer/2851423509/in/photostream
Tried to do the same effect with the water thing on the mirror, but photoshop was stupid to day........
Enjoy! :)
