so to find a new discursive space, a space to wander around those subject matters, is a real challenge :-)

CHEF BETH's theme is "Animal/Vegetable/Mineral/Abstract"! Here are the ingredients:
➤ Your image must be a pure, non-representational abstract.
➤ The source of your abstract must be a photo of a bird and/or a flower and/or a scissors (any one, two or all three).
➤ Your source photo(s) should not be recognizable (or only vaguely so) in the finished image.
➤ Be creative with your title which should convey the concept, composition and/or emotion of your abstract.
➤ You may use no other photos but the one, two or three noted above (though painting and other digital manipulation is fine).

Titled after J.S. Bach's most famous piece for pipe organ. I was inspired to do this particular piece after accidentally coming across a very powerful You Tube video of a performance of "Toccata and Fugue in D Minor" by a unique orchestra. "Symphonity". Said orchestra, is comprised of 12 electric guitarists and two bass players only. They cover classical pieces, including "The William Tell Overture" and the overture to "The Barber of Seville". But this performance of the Bach organ piece is particularly suited to the dynamics and timbral qualities of a guitar orchestra. Truly a very impressive thing to witness.

Monsieur Bear, the renowned artist, and Bandi watching from above, are shocked by the PDA they see! However, not enough to stop watching or painting. All the images are mine from Paris except, of course, the bear and bandicoot.
CHEF bethrosengard wants us to create a sculptural fantasy!
➤ The main focus of your image must be a sculptural art object(s), anything from the tiniest statuette to the Statue of Liberty, whether abstract or representational.
➤ You must set the object against a land-, sea- or cityscape that is not the object's usual setting.
➤ Include any one or more of the following: bees, bears, butterflies, birds, bats, beavers, bobcats, buffalo. (For 'extra credit' ;-), you may choose any of these instead: binturong, bandicoot, bichir, bonobo, bongo or bushmaster.)
➤ Your composition must have some kind of decorative border.
➤ NO PEOPLE (other than, possibly, the sculpture).

* I know some of my contacts struggle a little with abstract art. I actually took this shot because of its abstract qualities though I admit you could also describe it as representational . I was attracted to the different lines ,textures and materials in a similar way as I would be to a piece of sculpture .
It was taken at the West Front of Orleans cathedral in central France
