Quotes<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Becoming \u201cmore creative,\u201d whatever that means to you, doesn\u2019t often happen by accident. And it\u2019s not something you either are or are not, so you can check that excuse at the door right now. It\u2019s a choice. It\u2019s something you do. If you\u2019re longing to do more creative work, then stop taking it all so damn seriously; stop thinking about the work you\u2019ve already done and get excited about reinventing it, exploring new ideas, new techniques, and challenge yourself with more interesting problems.”<\/em> — David duChemin<\/strong><\/p>\n

It was the Rainbow gave thee birth,
\nAnd left thee all her lovely hues.<\/em> — W. H. Davies<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Great art is the outward expression of an inner life of the artist, and this inner life will result in his personal vision of the world.<\/em>\u201d – Edward Hopper<\/p>\n

Composite of 2 images taken at Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge. The background trees were taken across an embayment. The “fence” was duplicated and reversed. Red and yellow color layers were used with a circular gradient for the yellow. The judge didn’t like it, but I do. Let me know what you think.<\/p><\/div>\n
