People Project

     Human interaction and personality aren't the first two motifs I would originally think to capture. I have found myself looking more intently and deeply into the situations people put themselves in and the types of people they are as friends and family. I have started and will continue a project about people. Through stories, portraits and moments I will share my view of everyday interaction and I will show how they have influenced me.

      As I sat on the plush cushion that was displayed in the center of the room, I occasionally looked to the right and left, as Homer's own thoughts seemed to echo in my head. Or at least what I presume he may have said. "A touch of gray for this is no joyous day," he would have exclaimed, "a flock of birds fly over head yet two are given a dreadful end." Heavy strokes left vibrant strides as if there was more then what the images emphasized.
       As my gaze slid over to the right, two women stepped in front of Bellow's racial plight. With smirks and glares two contenders fight, which man will be left with victory in his sight? Both will struggle, losing a lot, but one will leave thinking he is on top. When really both have been disgraced for shedding blood was man's first mistake.
The time has come to move along to view the rest of history's song. Room-by-room I will admire portrayals of life that left men to aspire.

What Santa Barbara has to offer...

As yellow colors guide the way, dragging lines where no path of man can lay, one must think that nature's gift is something of a simple trick.  An earthy play on the human eye that uncontrollably leads the traveler's mind, away from social gains and towards her plans to reveal something more.
The chaos of yellow storms that sweep the hills leaving green behind to mix and fill. To take a moment to gaze and feel the warmth and growth that this path steals is all that she is asking for. For to see her breath will cure mans yield of always wanting something more.

Growing from Beneath

I found that this angle, looking up into the sky below the flowers was much more captivating to me. Its such a subtle difference but it really is a completely different world.




I have a few more that are slightly different that I may add soon.
When light and space create shadow and form that is when beauty unfolds. Look at the negative space as well as the positive. Don't look at these images as flowers but as forms and depth.
