Michael, if your Water Tooth were to be found on a gallery wall, no doubt I’d be looking at it for a long time. There’s great mystery there and the title just adds to the intrigue.
Meanwhile, I can’t help but wonder where one might find such a thing. Could it have belonged to this Lagoon Creature? She does appear to be searching for something. But don’t worry, you can see by her smile, she’s friendly, and perhaps only hoping to find an offering for the tooth fairy.
The Unknown Artist wanted to post this before you take off, Hans, but you can see What Comes Of Haste. I trust Michael and I (and maybe others?) will not let this forum rest, and meanwhile, may the skies above smile upon you.
A strip of cloth sheered by the wind could make for a diaphanous view of what lies between perceiving and the perceived. The same force might also separate The Wheat From The Barley.
Hans, your Sunsets are absolutely heerlijk! Below is a far cry from where you began this thread, but I share it here for two reasons. 1) where else would this non-B&W image fit? ;) and 2) to show what can be seen when contrast is pushed. The sky was odd looking yesterday and I had no idea what would come of playing with it in post-production. Another instance of following intuition.
This Is An Afternoon
Clever, Michael! And Hans takes us from sand… to silk ~~~
Below, a crossing of textures to add to our collection.Seeing the unfathomable devastation wrought by Irma and her cohorts sent me searching through archives, hoping to find an image that would offer a resting place at least for the eyes. This one’s a fair bit grainy, but it has a certain softness, like the comfort of a warm blanket. [ And no sticky stuff, Michael! ;) ]
Hans, glad to see you found a work around the posting problem. Speaking of such oddities, I noticed my previous post must have gotten “stuck” along the way and ended up out of sequence.
Thank you both for kind words. Not Taken Through A Muddy Window was a surprise for me too. The color version was so cold looking with its steely blue and grey hues. It was just for a lark that I cast it in B&W — and liked the results. More of that playful exploration we’ve talked about here.
Speaking of play… Hans, your titles continue to leave me giggling. What is your Trespasser up to? Some kind of Misadventure? He’d best watch out and not step in the Sticky Stuff.
PS: Michael, caught your ghostly apparition on the CAS gallery. Wow!
Talk about surreal! Who or what might be tethered to that bright chain of light you’ve teased us with, Hans? A blond artist hovering above an alien planet? The mind can’t help but wonder. Be that as it may, I like your image very much!
And Michael, glad to see you found a way around a posting glitch. Let’s see if this one makes it.
Not Taken Through A Muddy WindowOnce again, Hans, you’ve managed to be in the right place at the right time to capture a magical moment. Lovely!
PS: And hartelijk gefeliciteerd for having your Aveyron image chosen as this past Saturday’s cloud of the day!
Below might fit in with the Cloud Doodles, but posted here, it could be The Return of the Unknown Artist from B&W IV (perhaps a friend of Miro?). The mystery continues…
The image below has strayed even farther from your original inspiration for this thread, Michael. Yet I find the color and texture pleasing enough to share, and also want to thank you for having initiated some playful exploration here. And Hans, your image is so lovely to look at. I keep going back.
So funny, Hans! You are a keen observer (even in the dark of a movie theatre) and perhaps prescient in what you’ve seen in Michael’s intriguing Not a Sunset (the image below is evidence!). And as adorable as your friend above may appear, I’d watch out for him at sunset.
