I had a little fun with my muse this week. I played with the concert/train conductor theme and added a bit of Where's Waldo with musical instruments scattered throughout the piece. Some more obvious than others.
We've been stuck in winter mode around here and I've been feeling like spring, although officially here, is still just a dream away. This composition shares my feelings that spring weather and flowers are just beyond that portal.
While visiting the small village of Sayulita Mexico we walked along a quiet street of small shops. A little girl peeked at me from a doorway next to a shop entrance. In a moment of shyness she ducked behind the wall and I spied her doll next to her mimicking the same pose. I couldn't resist snapping a photo of this sweet scene.
The main photo is from a trip we took to Friday Harbor, WA. In this composition there are some subtle additions. The first and most obvious is the earth rather than the moon in the sky. The others are a sunken ship and mermaid at the bottom left. It's a rather moody/dreamy work which I seem to be leaning toward lately. The original photo was taken in the early evening.
The next composition will be much lighter in feel so stay posted.
