ferrousironicWelp, here is a random photo of the finished milkweed and monarch. <br>
<br>
I am very happy to have this piece behind me, but I feel ambivalent about its appearance, atm. Perhaps I just feel brain dead but at least I don't hate it (yet).<br>
<br>
I will probably touch it up somewhat, but I looks fine. It's much more radiant IRL but I can't seem to capture the colors in a file.<br>
<br>
Cameras do not like contrasting color juxtapositions, it seems. This photo reminds me of so many other photographs, especially of grid pieces, that look like their made of maybe ten colors, but when seen IRL it's obvious there are so many more.<br>
<br>
And the brain performs a plethora of brain tricks too, some known and some unknown, and I can never be sure which is which.<br>
<br>
Anyway, part of the idea was to hide the subject matter too, and keep the piece in the abstract genre.<br>
<br>
Half disappearing monarch, half disappearing art, half disappearing observer.<br>
