ATC


ATC - Four original flower photographs digitally manipulated in Picture It.

In the 80's I worked entirely in black and white and it still feeds something in me. It could be the tranquil harmony that is achieved in the tonal range.

"Using real ephemera from daily life can add richness to a journal. But packaged images--which might well be called pseudo-ephemera--besides not really being related to our lives have become ubiquitous, and like anything too often repeated, these images have become cliches. As such, this material weakens any artwork in which it's used unless it's radically changed or used very deliberately and for reasons that relate clearly to the concept of the piece." Gwen Diehn - The Decorated Journal

Mmmm, very interesting . . .
