The average post starts out with an inspiration. Something that happened during the day, a reflective moment, a rant…..now that I think of it, there really is no average post for me. More often that not, it actually begins with the image. Fifteen or so odd years ago, I had no idea what could eventually be of this image. For whatever reason, us photographers are kind of possessed. We are on a constant search for the next image…..dragging bags and packs of excessive gear to incredible places. Why is that? For me, it is quite simple. There is a beautiful world out there! I find great happiness in gathering and sharing those moments. Travel becomes a full time sensory overload as you open your eyes to the world. Scanning your surroundings for unique situations, color, patterns, light, emotion, …..the whole world becomes quite cinematic!
Wow, I am completely off track here….again….
I was inspired to post this image tonight based on an incredible artist I met. More on her in a minute….
I have always been inspired by paintings. How someone can create the illusion of reality, light, and emotion on a canvas has always intrigued me and to be quite honest, made me a little jealous. Perhaps taking a brush to canvas is something I really need to try someday. Put that on the bucket list I guess….
So, at the event that we did this evening, I met an artist…..a painter of live events. I hope to post an image of her at work tomorrow evening. She started the day at about 11AM when we were finishing up the lighting focus and tweek. With a blank canvas, she spent the day capturing the incredible setup, florals, architecture, hanging cherry blossoms, lighting, and as the guests walked in…..she proceeded to paint a few of the guests into the painting. I have never seen anything quite like it before!
My image for today, tough not painted by hand, is my art. Thanks for the inspiration Agnes!
Check back tomorrow for a shot of her at work and a link to her incredible artwork!

I have always wanted to be able to paint/draw but am just soo incredibly bad at it, lol. Thank goodness for photography, I say! đ
As for lugging packs full of photographic equipment around, for me it has nothing to do with capturing beauty .. I just like to strengthen my spine đ
Yeah I’m a little nuts today. This shot is very cool!

Beautiful shot and processing. Mike, the aim of artists always, is to capture the light, and portray it’s effect on the objects it touches. You are already halfway there, a lighting wizard. Pick up some paint and brushes, you may surprise yourself!
