Later today the posting ‘A Play with Beth‘ a portrait of a remarkable young South African woman who just finished High School. As for this morning Beth shows off the new 3 piece ‘prom-dress’ her grandmother made for her. Each piece can be combined with different clothes. And that’s smart thinking for prom-dresses (very expensive to buy) are usually designed for once off use.. Of some of these pictures reworked versions are shown in the posting later today.
As promised in yesterday’s posting herewith some ‘cross-breeds’. It turned out that, this time, simple thinking (bottom image) in working with photoshop is resulting in the best imaginary…..
Both imaginaries are inspired by this recent blog posting. The first, ‘Watching Angels’ is the pre-amble of the second ‘Guardian Angels’ and does not need any comment. On first sight I’m very fond of ‘Guardian Angels’, partly because of the symbols here and there in this imaginary, i.e. the dove as symbol for ‘peace’ and ‘Holy Spirit’ and the stork for new life to mention a few. On my way to the photo session with the angels I passed a fully neglected cemetery. Fully, not entirely for only one ‘poor man’s grave’ is regularly foreseen with fresh flowers… Respect for burial places is something I’m born with and to honour the past what else could I do than passing the message to the angels?
