Figuratively and literally. I have three months of mediocrity in my folders, poor planning and bad luck mostly so nothin' new. I'm leaving for AZ and Texas on Friday and my work is trying to pack two weeks work into one so I'm sleeping in, getting home late which means no Flickr. Probably will be backed up when I return too so I'll be back asap.

One more from Sun Lakes. It's nice when you are already someplace beautiful when you get a great sunset. :-)

mixed media on paper.

I was first drawn to the color gradient, then looked for a rock that created more movement in the water and added an element to the composition. Playa de La Espasa - Asturias

Charleston, South Carolina, USA

If pieces are moved aWay

and if form defines the direction

what can change my perception?

...figuratively speaking that is.

This area is known as More Mesa and it's less than a mile from my house to these bluffs. It's a wonderful open space (320 acres) and full of wildlife and great ocean views.

Acrylic on board, lit and reflecting. There’s a lot of blue and green in there too, lurking in the crevices and just beneath the surface, which makes the gold resonate even more strongly.

A huge special thanks to Tibor Nagy

for letting me use his fantastic photo for my art: www.flickr.com/photos/tnagy/26668441454/in/gallery-irishi...

I printed this with Gamblin Relief Ink and used my new Iron Frog Baren (frog).

...with a golden touch...

digital art

Day now, night now, at head, side, feet,

They stand their vigil in gowns of stone,

Mouthless, eyeless, with stitched bald head.

Faces blank as the day I was born.

Their shadows long in the setting sun

That never brightens or goes down.

And this is the kingdom you bore me to,

Mother, mother. But no frown of mine

Will betray the company I keep.

(Sylvia Plath)

Catalogne, août 2022

"A snow day literally and figuratively falls from the sky, unbidden, and seems like a thing of wonder."

-- Susan Orlean (American journalist, television writer, and bestselling author)

Three bracketed photos were taken with a handheld Nikon D7200 and combined with Photomatix Pro to create this HDR image. Additional adjustments were made in Photoshop CS6.

"For I know the plans I have for you", declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~Jeremiah 29:11

The best way to view my photostream is through Flickriver with the following link: www.flickriver.com/photos/photojourney57/

(Second try)

Two and four:

Two elemental figures / or are these figural elements.//

Become two only when placed together.//

Which defines space. // Space captures the elements //

The elements format space. // Space dictates the artist.

Which makes four:

elements, space and artist

(Yes, this might be called a 'Combine')

The avail of propaganda

is that you and I

do what

we detest.

Het nut van propaganda

is dat U en ik

doen wat ons

ten zeerste tegenstaat (DM, 26-01-2016)

Ulster Heights Lake, NY.

This very anthropomorphic tree reminds of the Whomping Willow in the Harry Potter novels - thrashing its arms around. In this case, an oak, still green amongst lovely autumn colour from the beeches in the New Forest.
