Gerardo 3 Portrait

Yesterday afternoon I did another photo shoot with Gerardo. I got some great photos in the the late afternoon light filtering through this tiny house's third floor window. His face was a mix of light and subtle shadow. I was up until about 2:30 am working on this portrait. I hope to get 1-2 more from yesterday's photographs.  Since you are wondering, yes, his hair is shorter.

Gerardo 3

In this portrait he is curious or surprised about something I said so his eyes are extra wide open!

Mauve Kaleidoscope Geometric Art 1

Mauve Kaleidoscope Art 1

I took a recently made gray/black/white kaleidoscope artwork and selectively painted over parts of it.
For your viewing pleasure, here is the unpainted version.

They're both available in my Imagekind gallery. This artwork is slightly different from the others because I added a little graininess to the background. I imagined the art being part of a stone or concrete wall.
Which do you like more?

Antiqued Purple Iris 1

Antiqued Purple Iris 1

This antiqued purple iris was put through a series of filters including a light sepia to give it an antique look even though I took it about a year and a half ago in color. I'm just starting to experiment with black and white and/or sepia so please give me feedback if you have experience with these.
