I cannot paint. That is the sad truth of things. Give me a paintbrush and some paints and I will make a puce nightmare. 
A three year old could probably produce better "art" than I if given these things.
This is why I create photomanipulations and now am veering off into the world

This is why I create photomanipulations and now am veering off into the world of mixed media....still combining some photography into it too.
There is something romantic about the notion of sitting in front of a blank canvas and creating, with a brush, something from deep inside ones self. 
I can even see the studio in my head....smell the paints....feel the brush in my hand.... Can even imagine the stained and well splattered clothing I'd be wearing.

I want to make art, but I cannot paint.

Things I see.

1 min read

I have always been excited by things I see in the world. 

The way light falls, the way long shadows loom through tree's in the late afternoon... old abandoned shacks overgrown with weeds, lone dead tree's on the horizon, turquoise waters, patterns in the sand that the water carves.   Tiny details and vast expanses- both give me pleasure.

I have a tendency to enjoy a darker side though too.  The "intriguingly beautifully strange." 

I want to explore all of this through photography.  I'm not sure quite how yet and I'm still just learning all the very basic  stuff.
