Sometimes the cloudy days are lovely with the cloud formations, but I thought I would do one of a day of endless sunshine. The photo was of a girl, whom I don't know, and there was no background in the photograph. I wanted her to be just peeking out of part of the lower right corner. It is an effect Degas used, successfully I might add, to give the idea the girl is walking along the seashore with the bright sun overhead.
Also there is a show coming up in a few months called "Expressions of Color", and I thought a bright parasol would be most powerful if everything was understated. Let me know what you think.
Soon I am taking a step I have never taken. I am going to have some of my paintings scanned by a professional in printing, and then have prints made. Many have asked me about prints, and I was too concerned to do it with my own printer as the results probably wouldn't be worth it. Anyway, I will know more next week.
