August 18 was a day of mystery, she peeked instead of bursting forth

I love the math + language theme, and the hinges. To me it seems like the woman peeking out is the self, putting together images, language, math, to make a whole person. Really like it.

Hey, thanks. I love windows (and doors). I love the idea of entering, of seeing. Glad you enjoyed. The math seemed a critical piece of this, a way to impart linearity to the subjective.

I'm liking the box at the top right with the question mark. "What's behind door number three?" Kudos.

I am liking the watercolor flower there. It provides rest from the somewhat grittier texture of the rest of the collage. Haha, I remember that math.

This was an interesting compositon for me, especially the part about the blue shade. I do love an operable window!

Thanks, I love that flower, too. It was a piece of a pattern on scrapbooking paper, fancied up a little with some marker and dye inks. I love windows and doors....

Love the expression of the woman at the window, and the contrast between transparency and the opaque shutter.

Yes, it is that contrast upon which the concept hung.

Nope, it's a paper flower. Glad you like!

Did you had paint the flower?

I love the little figure peeking out from under the shutter.

Kind Merton peeking out the window of his suburban hermitage? Wink.

And the mathematical calculations are a neat addition, since life is always about calculating odds, considering risks, making choices, formulating possible scenarios, etc... at least mine is! Silly me.

LauraTringaliHolmes In reply to mertonparrish [2011-06-29 00:06:00 +0000 UTC]

I clipped the flower out of a big piece of paper, didn't paint it. There's a lot of glaze in the background of this piece, but that particular item is just plain paper. I enjoy the math calculations, too. It is all probability and speculation, percentages, and risk when you stick your head out of the window!

mertonparrish In reply to LauraTringaliHolmes [2011-07-16 23:20:50 +0000 UTC]

Well, in general I hate math stuff, but if it is about considering options, figuring things out, etc., in relation to figuring out my life (or helping others do this) then I like that sort of thing, though I do not really get that mathy about it... just very detail and discussion oriented. I do not think I would go so far as to create specifics... but I would design schedules, create lists and categories of things to consider, etc. And I do like to categorize things, groups of artworks, series, etc., in my work... I like to see and keep track of all I have created, give it titles, categories, put it in collections, piles etc... but no complicated calculations please... that is where I draw the line.. wink.

Thank you. It's easy to get lost in the creation of color. Becomes a sort of quiet zone.
