I enjoy using a camera to translate my visualization into reality on paper. Visualization is defined as the ability to see in the "mind's eye" the finished work before actual application. It is the creative process of images transitioning from the realm of the reactive and contemplative to the conscious and deliberate. An element of surreal gives the viewer a different perspective on the subject, removing the literal and getting down to the essence of conveying the energy of the subject. For me, the image begins when the work goes beyond merely representing reality and enters the realm of personal expression. My methods are meant to be intentional, whether in the camera or post processing.

Have a Seat



Another image from the floral exhibits that I visited in London at the Chelsea Flower Show. The "half" tub with its Victorian legs and the flowers around the terrace invite one into have a seat and enjoy the garden! This was one of my favs for the exhibits...I used Snapseed and Glaze for this. I like the Glaze app for a painterly mood which I think this image needed.
