Abstract?

abstracts 2

So far, I've defined abstract as removing the personal while still conveying emotion: focus on essential details and flatten the image. Still searching for more ideas.

Caitlin, I just saw this - we are thinking along the same lines.  Pretty aren't they?

road trip abstract expansion

I liked how the artists used colors and shapes to evoke emotion and have used this a lot in the abstracts I have found/played with.

It was a cold winter night;

we bundled up as we traveled to Uncle Nickolas cabin.

It was to be a special time helping Uncle Nickolas unpack

his many gaily wrapped boxes and bags.

We had hot cocoa and ginger snaps.

We quietly walked up the stairs searching for the last box to open and explore.

There, to our amazement, was a wonderful collect of negatives

showing Uncle Nickolas cabin.

They’re very old.

He said we could share our found treasure with you …

2010 I created a fanciful Santa workshop where

special dreams came true

for all boys and girls

of all ages.

Where colorful Christmas trees

lite the snow covered hillside

and sparkled on the hillsides beyond

Santa's special workshop.

2011 we shall again visit the

fanciful Santa workshop

as it turns and turns and turns

much like those wonderful snow globes!

May your dreams may come true!

As seen in.....

After harvest this year, i got in contact with the editor of a Washington Magazine called Wheat Life and submitted photos from the few weekends I spent on the farm with Thomas and gang. She loved this photo so much she had it published in the Your Wheat Life section of the magazine which hit mailboxes yesterday! Which mean I have now been officially published! :)

Small side note, It is Thomas in the photo and his pickup in the background.
