Spectral Threads

meditative quiet illuminated dress stands alone anywhere i might be.

i'm going to use the blurb site to create a book. thinking about maybe attaching an envelope with dress swatches in it. love the idea of being able to touch the dress viewer is seeing.

I got like 12 shots last week. They are on the way...

The weather was too crazy to travel 1.5 hours east. I headed west to alabama instead and postponed marianna trip until next week.
I did come up with a back cover...

And two more shots. Not sure about page placement. A supporting foot broke off and had to abort shooting until I had it re-tacked. Excuses.

Right after this shot I saw two boys riding their bikes with HUGE confederate flags on the back. It was so weird.

Today, I'm traveling east to get a majority of the rest of my photos. It's gloomy and disappointing for sunset shoot but the gloomy part will work. They will be all posted by this weekend.
I then will continue playing with font for my title.

I am choosing to do a 12" x 12" book hardcover. I might add some text below photos such as, "She stopped her car, got out and quickly ate an assortment of sugary goods from the local drugstore. This will fill my loud thoughts with quiet, sleepy nothingness."
My artist's statement will be on the 4th page-inside cover being page one....
Artist statement as follows:

I prefer seclusion and solitude. However, the feeling becomes overwhelming in certain times of the day and in certain locations. I want to capture this using the location in which this feeling transpires. The illuminated dress represents a hollowed version of me with anticipation of hope.
