Piece description from the artist
While working the second day of the rummage and art sale at our house, I decided to have a little stencil alphabet fun. Because a day (or two!) of standing around trying to sell your used junk can be very tiring! I took a ton of shots of many things, but like in most cases, simple is better. For this one, all I did was center the template on piece of brown craft paper and shoot it. The wonderful rainbow of dried paint is courtesy of my son and wife.
Day 331 of my 365 photo a day project.
Emotion. Mood. Feelings. This is what I capture through my photographs. Whether it is landscapes, architectural elements, still life, or macros – it is a very personal journey as my own fears, triumphs, beliefs, and shortcomings are exposed with each photo.
Much of what I shoot is done spontaneously without preconceived thought or plan. I let what is around me dictate what is photographed.
And the shooting is only the first step – a jumping off point. I take the raw images and create what I see in my mind’s eye. Coaxing out textures present in the shot – sometimes adding them. Enhancing the contrast of light and dark to create the mood and emotions I felt and feel. In the end, it’s all about listening to my heart and mind and creating a visual representation of what I feel the moment the shutter is released.
I'm a native Texan currently living in Milwaukee, Wisconsin with my lovely wife and son.
