I am continually exploring ways of understanding ways to make the vision I want... sometimes it's closer to stumbling.<br /><br />Hi Jala, Does your brain and heart sometimes duke it out? Mine do. I always route for the heart;-)loriann signorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16738796573576452724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2569842595006112796.post-18099584631759078142010-03-13T23:50:28.083-05:002010-03-13T23:50:28.083-05:00I really like what you said about heart and brain....I really like what you said about heart and brain.

Everything is slippery and impressionistic. And that is what I love about his approach. When we focus on a specific area of the composition we immediately go to hard edges. Bringing the subject up to focus through manipulation of values, colors and edges is truly worth exploring.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2569842595006112796.post-17818230746170387092010-03-12T13:10:55.254-05:002010-03-12T13:10:55.254-05:00Thanks Sam!
