Late night abstract! It’s something fun and a bit simpler than some of my recent designs. I call it “Jelly Bean” because for some reason I kept thinking of how colorful they are the entire time I made this.

I just added the Sigma 10-20mm lens to my photography lens kit! I can’t wait to test it out (once it arrives). It’s perfect for vast landscape and wide angle shots.
“Aurora” combines some of my old styles with some new painting techniques. I’m focusing on textures with my newer abstracts. I still start with a base photograph and work from there to create the finished piece.
Finding hidden treasures in your own town is a very rewarding thing about photography! I didn’t even know this little section of lovely was only about 15 minutes from my home. The point is to get out and explore. You never know what you might find. Once you get to your destination be sure to walk around. Photo opportunities lie in every corner from macros of wild flowers to old bridges.
Keep your mind open, and you may discover more about the town you call home and really spruce up your photography portfolio at the same time.

This. Is. AMAZING! My inner animator is thrilled to see new ways of using modern technology to create wonderful animations.
Dentsu London combines an iPad with 3D animation that takes animation to the next level. The intro is a great opener that walks you through the process so you can enjoy it that much more when you view the final product. Set your eyes to stunned and marvel away.
Had a great time alone in nature yesterday evening. I love heading out to take photos a couple hours before sunset because you get such a variety of light conditions in a short amount of time.
Fall is a wonderful time to explore the great outdoors. It’s not too hot and not too cold and colors are abundant.
Water photography tips:
• Slower shutter speeds create the soft cottony flow of the water while faster shutter speeds make the water sharper. Play around with these settings because you can get very different effects with slight changes in shutter speeds.
• A tripod is absolutely necessary for water photography or any nature shot.
• Shoot in Aperture Priority mode
• Look for contrasting colors to make the image pop. The mossy green on a rock can be the only big pop of color from earthy rocks and dirt.
• Use a polarizer filter to increase the reflections in the water.
• Try to keep things simple. Eliminate too many items in your image. Focus on one major subject with complimentary items in the background and foreground that don’t distract from your subject.

After taking a short vacation deep in the seclusion of the mountains, I came back with some new photos! Sometimes a relaxing jaunt in the woods is all it takes to get the creative juices flowing.
I’ve been super busy in Photoshop over the last few weeks creating fairy tale lands for an upcoming project in 2012! Most of you know my artwork is mostly abstracts mixed with a little photography here and there. This is the first project where I literally dived head first into photo composition thus, unleashing completely new Photoshop powers.
While challenging, this has been a very rewarding and fun project. As artists, we should always try to evolve our skills and sometimes that means stepping outside of our normal routine. I’ll share more fairy tale photos soon.
