A Teaser!

My art group of 4 is preparing to exhibit our 4x4x4x4 results from April.  We each took a photo from our life at 4:00 everyday this past April (month 4) and we will be printing them 4x4 for the exhibit. We are hoping to place each artist's photos above each other so that the viewer can see 4 pictures of each day. Stay tuned for an update on where the exhibit will take place.
Here are a few of my teaser photos to encourage you to come to the exhibit.

Scannography--Spring Flowers

I love the way a hi-resolution scanner can create photographs that resemble film in their color depth and contrast.  This was a long winter in Vermont and as soon as the spring flowers appeared I started producing images of these fleeting wonders.  I never realized how many of the early spring blooms are yellow and white until I started this body of work. The variety here is done through arrangement rather than color.  I did buy a purple pansy to add to the collection.
I also used pussy willows in a number of the arrangements because of the lovely texture of the branches.
I applied for a Vermont Center on the Arts Creation Grant to continue this work and produce a body of images for exhibit using both scannography and silhouette art.









These two are my favorite images--both simple and sensuous:
