experimentation

I've been trying to set up a website. After much mucking about, I've decided to stick with the simple blog for now and focus on experimenting with images and words. Much more fun that way.

This piece is an experiment in glass reflections and imagination:

dreams

I used to hope my dreams would come true,
Then I wondered if my dreams could ever possibly come true,
And then I decided to damn well make those dreams happen.

procrastination

It's always fun to play with horse images, especially when I have a mile-long to-do list.

grumble grumble coffee grumble

I'd like to thank my cats for a turbulent night of little sleep. They're lucky they're cute.

Made this piece last night. Not sure yet what to call it.

navigation

A year ago, my life was fairly uneventful. No, that's a lie. My life has never been uneventful; it's just more not-uneventful now than I'm used to. 

The good part is that nothing bad is happening. It's all good stuff, just lots of stuff, including stuff I've never dealt with before. I've learned about roll-over IRAs and self-employment, and now I need to buy a hay bag for use when transporting a horse. It's all good. 

Now, if I could just figure out how to properly navigate the Gradient Tool in Photoshop, that'd be dandy.

introspection

I am experiencing one of those significant-change times in life. But these are magical wonderful changes! The opportunity to pursue my dreams! I'm excited and amazed and terrified and melancholy… Uncertainty. Possibilities! Anxiety. Adventure! Loss. New love! New friends! Fear. Freedom! Creativity!

In other words, I'm moody as hell. But in a good way!

In the meantime, I've been working on a new photo art theme I call SYLVAN HIDEAWAY. Here is the first image of the series:
