A Reason For Hope, revised

A Reason For Hope, revised, by Mary Stebbins Taitt. I repainted this painting digitally on my desktop computer for several reasons. One problem I have is that my tablet PC, on which I do my art, has an improper aspect ration so all the pictures come out wrong and have to be readjusted. I had not remembered to do that. I also hated the texture I added, so basically, I had to repaint the entire picture to get rid of it. I'm still not sure I am done with it.

See the earlier version here. Note: It did NOT look that narrow on my tablet when I painted it originally. The aspect ration on the tablet makes it look either much wider or much narrower depending on whether I paint in landscape or portrait mode. Landscapes look wider and portraits look narrower and then when I uppload them, they opposite on a normal screen. It is very distressing.

The Dunes by Moonlight

The Dunes by Moonlight, by Mary Stebbins Taitt.

This is a sandwich of multiple time exposures of the dunes at the Pinery from our picnic table done using the collage option in Picasa. No other adjustments were made to any stage of this image (other than cropping.)

I have back-dated this post to the night I took the actual images. I was not on-line that night, since I was camping.
