kaleidoscape





Did you know I am an avid reader? As I read the words on a page describing the places or spaces that the novel takes place in I tend to lose my train of thought and drift into a dreamlike state. I have traveled little, but in my mind I have gone to many places full of great history, stories, and fascinating people. It is with this mindset that I have taken on this new series of blurred, dreamlike pictures. You aren't supposed to be able to see the fine details, but rather feel like you are a viewer into my mind; my dreams. I will leave it up to you to imagine the sounds that go with the images. The murmur of people, horns of cars, the bells of churches, and the wheels on the trolleys. Welcome to my dreams. Welcome to Kaleidoscape.

charcoal..

Just sharing a photo I happen to enjoy that reminds me of a charcoal sketch. I'm drawn to the pattern and smudging of the lines which of course are branches reflected off of a creeks surface in High Park.


Many thanks to those of you who visited my last entry, and then gave me comments. critiques, and your pick to help me determine which image to submit for the exhibition I am attempting to enter. I couldn't make this work without your help and support, so I sincerely give you all my thanks.
