Fun With Texture: Unexpected Benefits

I really don’t like having to create any demarcation in my work between the commercial and the artistic. My belief has always been that it is neglectful to think of documentary or commercial work as blind to asthetic, or of art as entirely unmindful from the realities of business. Recently, on a much more straightforward assignment, I natually came away with material for less obvious images. As it should be. There is a motley assortment here, the less distorted and the very distorted, and it also includes the images from my prior post, Triptych, a project which was happily able to march toward being finished.

The Daisy Series

Daisies are easily one of my favorite flowers and when I saw them in the painfully early morning light, I couldn’t resist…

The Millipede Series:

Unlike with daisies, millipedes are not my favorite crawly thing, but when given a handful of them, I couldn’t resist taking lots of pictures here as well (plus, they are kinda cute and oddly remind me of Nine Inch Nails),

As always, thanks are due to my favorite farmer who happily allows me to come out, disrupt the quiet and generally get in the way of things.
