Bonny Doom Beach in Spring, watercolor painting Spring adds a new dimension to the beach. With colorful
fields of wild flowers and birds singing, the coastal land becomes
a stunning contrast to the rugged high cliffs and sea. The purple flowers are seaside
daisies and the yellow flowers maybe
wild mustard.
When the sea is rough, this
is an excellent place to go
to see the waves crashing
against the marine terraces at the base of the cliffs. Between the
sound and height of the sprays it is a very dynamic sight. The marine terraces were once the ocean floor and were carved flat by the action of the ocean. They were raised above sea level
about 10,000 years ago.
 Rembrant Tulips,
a Photo on Canvas A photograph is a wonderful
way
to capture a moment in
time. The subject or scene
will change, so you can not
quite photograph it the same
way again. Even when you
take a series of photographs
at one time, they are different.
This aspic
of photography is
what makes us try over and
over again to take that perfect
picture. Working digitally
to
enhance a photograph can be
a very creative endeavor, it
maybe only slight changes
and cropping
or quite involved.
Tulips are beautiful subjects to photograph. In this photograph I had a pleasant surprise when I
opened it on the computer and saw how the camera had caught the shot. The tulips are bright
and colorful with a background of black creating good negative space between them and near some of the edges.
This photograph is good for a photo on canvas with a gallery wrap, some of the tulips go on the sides with
other places it is black
Orac,
a metal sculpture with stain glass
The Orca is first
made with steel welding rods with more steel welding on to give it the smooth look. The
structure that holds up the orca and creates a place to
lead solder
the stain glass is made of steel rods also. The whole metal sculpture was then zinc plated so that
the stain glass surround with zinc cane could then be soldered to the steel rods that created the waves.
