This is a medium shot of Segui in front of the shed. I like the way the medium shot allows us to see some details in his face, like his dripping nose and slightly squinting eyes, as well as some detail on his back (like the shedding hair). In terms of composition, I like the soft vertical lines in the background, and the diagonal line that my dog is positioned in. I think the use of lines helps draw attention to his face in a nice way.
What a fascinating assignment! A la Matisse, I cut out random shapes from an old desktop sketchpad that had all my old spills, scribbles, and paint blobs. I used a small pen-like rotary cutter as scissors are too hard on my thumb/hand. Then I had some old 5 x 7 matboard so I brayered some black acrylic on those. Then I glued...and figuring out which way to orient them, portrait or landscape, was the greatest fun AND challenge. At first I had only single shapes, but then realized I wanted the pieces relational somehow, then the moon idea came.
I just never realized how powerful and evocative shapes were before this exercise. THEY TELL STORIES - but I dare say, different stories for each of us. I feel as though I will be able to tiptoe into some non-objective paintings based on this experiment. Thank you, Leslie!

~ A set of clothes that hanged on those fancy 'fashion hangers' you would see in movies concerning movies. When I happened to move to Serbia, I had one in my room outside of my closet. I used to put clothes I either hated or loved. It'd change all the time.
I miss that room. I can't imagine what it'd be like to visit it again.. Oh gosh.
I think it's called a 'Clothes' rack' I'm not sure

I plan to start another painting later in the week, but meanwhile I am catching up with editing photos. Here's one that I took back on October 3, on pickup day for The Food Project, which is our CSA, over at Long Hill Gardens. These peppers were in a great big bin. I liked the way they looked, so I took a picture. Today I did a little retouching in iPhoto and then cropped the original to get this composition.
