Dream Sequence #3, digital double exposure, 2023

Created with photos of my walks and a noir filter I created, then double exposed over one another. Images taken in transitory outdoor spaces.

Green and beige, all from the same day.

So many shades, so many moments.

The streetlight reminds me of the scarecrow from Howl's Moving Castle like it might just hop away.

(Don't Panic but) You Are Here
[Alt title: The Pale Blue Dot]
Mixed media
I made this circa 2020

Inspired by Carl Sagan's Pale Blue Dot, and Douglas Adam's Hitchhiker's Guide.

We should probably start to panic though.

Thank you, Richard! I'm happy to share the moment 😊

I was at a holiday home this weekend and took this - your background would much better suit the text on the window!

Today's haul from Herne Bay.

Funny thing is, in the moment I hadn't thought I'd found anything too special. Then I grouped them together and my heart sang, "how could you see anything but treasure?"

A painting in a river.

A river in the sky.

What is a painting anyway?

And who says the river has to stay on the ground?

These silly rules we live by -

It's time we kindly and gently relieve them of their post.

You are free.

From my walk the other day. Are shadows not part of the things that cast them?

We live in a flat without trees directly outside the windows, so there are no natural shadows. I've placed vases of dead branches in all the windows so we still get shadows in the golden hour.
