More kimono play

I am just playing around some more with the kimono scrap images.  I like the dimension in this one as well as the flow of the calligraphy.

Calligraphic egg

Cleaning up yard debris this afternoon now htat there are actual areas without snow, I come across this lonely dove egg sitting all by itself in the groudcover. Don't know whether Mom lost it on a fly by or gave up trying to make a nest or what.  But I love the shadow of branches creating calligraphy on the surface.

The addiction continues!

I took the IPad with me to my studio at the Starline yesterday and ended up shooting all around the studio, everything from the wooden beams to the titles of books on the shelf.  I think the ones with the words could be really interesting as textiles. Next step is to play with these in Photoshop and see where they could go from here. And then maybe on to Spoonflower for printing. Danger ahead!

Pavement patterns

Driving down some backroads yesterday I notice along stretch of payement that has been patched with black tar (?).  Much of it looks like Japanese calligraphy. It would have been fun to be high above the road and see it all as one long scroll.
