I finished my sister's birthday present! :)
I made her a vintage handkerchief dress to match her eyelids. I also handpainted 3 of her eye chips. This was my first attempt at a semi open mouth, it was fun! ♥
28.2.2008: slice of cherry tomato sitting on a plastic folder sitting on top of my desk lamp and the super-macro setting on my pocket camera.
Really high-tech photography.
A layer of translucent blue (Again, testors enamel) gives the surface an iridescent quality. Id recommend tossing the nozzles these cans come with and buying nice ones at an art supply store. They spit paint everywhere and it can ruin a nice basecoat
This paint job changes color drastically in every photo with each different camera...
Astor Place, New York City. These were taken on a trip to New York that Gary, Anne and I took a month ago.
This particular building reflection caught my eye because it was so clear and because the left edge/corner of the newer building was sharp and shallow enough so that we could see through it. Also, it was dusk so there were lights on in the older building.
Thee's something about seeing the inside of a monolithic glass box from the outside that has an appeal for me. Sort of like finding out how airplanes are honeycomb structures covered with a thin skin of aluminum (or whatever material their skins are made of). Lastly, this large face of the building was facing due west, perfect for picking up the sky and fading light.
Birds always can handle this kind of unbalanced pose.
Happy weekend!

Sep 9 2017 - The new Manulife tower looks like a see through building.. so reflective of the sky it's like a total mirror to the outside world.
