First, the horizon tilted down about five degrees, I thought, "I could name this 'the world is round, and we're sliding off'". Then the water-horizon kept creeping upward with every bump my hand made.<BR/><BR/>Turning "Portrait" to a verticle format makes it look more like a landscape. Or some strange little animals. That is, if one must make blobs of color into something 'real'. The title just popped into my head.Melissa Evangeline Keyeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06414199867126164752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7880014167728169881.post-3884577293633499362008-05-13T07:30:00.000-04:002008-05-13T07:30:00.000-04:00Melissa -- I really like Jungle Home... it's so fu...Melissa -- I really like Jungle Home... it's so full of energy. The house sits quietly in the middle of blowing branches and wildness, peeking out like through a curtain.<BR/><BR/>I also think Portrait is striking... I didn't see the person in it at all at first. Just the shape of the lines, which are beautiful. It's a bit of an optical illusion. Funny that you had no trouble getting that blue line straight, but say you had to work at it on the ocean one (which I still enjoyed).<BR/><BR/>I know these aren't your usual subjects, but you handled them with finesse.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
