30 Oct 2010 Autumn Speaks

My latest fall color composition is a piece I am calling “Autumn Speaks.”  When I am in the mood for some brilliant colors, I like to put up pictures on my screen wallpaper that look like wall hangings.  I thought this picture worked out well, and hope you will agree.  If you have a favorite fall shot, consider letting me matte it for you.

28 Oct 2010 Fall Color Match

This post is another example of how the beauty of fall colors can be enhanced with the Matte Watch color match matting technique.  You can easily fill your digital photo frame with pictures that keep all your visitors asking where you got such stunning images by sending me your pictures and allowing me to raise the level of your digital photography.  When you give others a Matte Watch gift, you do not have to confess how inexpensive rich can be.

27 Oct 2010 A Quiet Moment

Today, I felt compelled to sit back, sip my favorite drink, and ponder the stoic floating bronzed countenance of Benito Pedro Juárez Garcia.  When I was finished, I decided to share the opportunity for you to join with me in having a similar moment of your own.

26 Oct 2010 Another Thing

I spent a lot of time today working on a floral design that combined photo and color drawing techniques.  Here is the thing I came up with for your enjoyment, and hopefully selection.  In these hard economic times, it is soothing to surround yourself with pleasing images, so I will continue to crank out the soothe as long as I can.

25 Oct 2010 Bridge to Dreams

This post is another one of my favorite photo paintings created for my home studio.  I call the piece “Bridge to Dreams.”  Using a combination of photo manipulation techniques, the composition provides a nice expression of imagination mixed with form.

24 Oct 2010 4D Vision

Hey, have you ever wondered what it might be like to be able to see into multiple dimensions at once?  Well, even if you have not, it might look something like the picture below.  You can get a chance to win any of my site images by leaving comments on the images you like that you want to participate in the Comment Roulette Contest.

23 Oct 2010 Blue Iris Tour

In this post, I created a piece I call “Blue Iris Tour,” as a fantasy walk through a giant flower garden.  I am calling this work a photo painting that uses imagery to create pictures not found in Nature, but derived from natural elements.  I posted this one on my own computer screen to keep the creative juices flowing.  This kind of stuff might be considered a unique art form which is found only on this site unless somebody else copies it.  If you like my work, get your mitts on some of it before prices start going up.

22 Oct 2010 Flower Pot

The picture for today is another floral creation to continue the recent trend.  I do not have much to say about the basic design other than it would make a nice multi purpose template.  Enjoy.
