SKIN DEEP
and shaky kneed
It's assembled…
or at least standing in a rough assembly.
It's interesting…
how defined the starting and ending points are for the configuration.
At least in the physical sense.
The head is the top and the feet are the bottom. The middle is more ambiguous.
The light needs to be more effective. The effect of the light is good. Centered in the head and chest then falling off to the feet, with an interesting subtle glow on the base between the feet.
The knees are a little shaky like standing for the first time in a long time.
The middle area needs a lot of adjusting. Some images a little higher and some a little lower and some will need to be replaced with others not yet printed.
The backs of the knees are really beautiful soft and vulnerable.
The evening sun is setting and falling on the hands. This light can work well with spot lights on the base from 2, 3 or 4 directions. Will be fun to play with in the gallery.
When I started putting this project up on the web it didn't occur to me how difficult it could be for you to look at these images. I simply saw them for their beauty.
And I'm still very proud of them.
Looking is often more difficult than we give it credit for.
Seeing is.
