Melancholy

I must confess I did this rough sketch from a painted portrait I found in a magazine. What attracted me was the look in the model's eyes and how the artist had captured them. I wanted to do the same so I gave them the greatest detail.

I took this in Oregon last winter around the house where I lived. There was a field of weeds and this one caught my eye. I like it because of the delicate and graceful shapes. There are a whole lot of metaphors to go along with this photo. I'll let you imagine your own.
