Silver Light
Wednesday, February 25, 2009
It strikes me how the color of light washes over everything and steers my emotional world. The silver light of winter opens my eye like an aperture.... creates a world shimmering with a mercurial glow. Sound is muted by the snow covered ground and the silence is graceful and welcome. The sharpness of white and the deep blacks of the bare wet tree barks thrill me. A red scarf bursts it’s way into my visual landscape. The hard cold air sends it’s shards into my nostrils and my head opens with joy.
Visual Inspirations
I love to spend time looking..... seeing things deeply. A few of my favorite places to absorb beauty, whether from nature or the human hand, are listed below:
Red Barns in the rolling fields of Iowa
The Hudson River Shores
Bear Mountain, NY
Blue Mountain Reserve in WInter
Oskawana Marsh,
From time to time I’ll share some of my inspirations and ruminations. Since photography is one of my passions, I’ll share some of that too. I feel that a well rounded artist draws insight and motivation from every aspect of her life, so it’s fruitful to understand how one vision enriches and informs another...
