Improved photography ?

Here are my Seasons again. I was told the photos were very blurry so I tried again. I think they are much improved and the fresh batteries and effort worth it. Enjoy.

Framed in a window

These 9x12 canvas boards will some day rest in a frame styled to look like a 4 pained window. The inspiration for these was working with calendar photos with my students. Each is a combination of two or more photos and represented to me the feeling of the respective season. I intend to do another series of the seasons with a mythological flavor, but first I have several paintings in progress to finish (hopefully).

fun with faces

This 16 x 20 unframed acrylic on canvas was inspired by the many tales of the jealous love affair between the sun and moon. In some myths the male sun simply chases the female moon across the sky endlessly spurned. In others the earth is also involved as the male the moon prefers and the jealous sun is trying to chase the moon away from the earth. Tales of this sort are found around the globe in many cultures and I think that is what I most like about them.
