03 / FIELD NOTES

Things noticed
along the way.

NOTE 001

Wait for the room to change.

The window stayed still. The afternoon didn’t. Sometimes the useful choice is to stop moving.

NOTE 002

Take the slower road.

An unplanned turn, a longer walk, and a place that would have disappeared through a car window.

NOTE 003

Leave something out.

A quieter frame can hold more attention. The edge of the picture is a decision too.

04 / OFF THE SCREEN

A little room
on your wall.

A STUDY IN LOOKING / ORIGINAL ARTWORK
STUDY 02 / AT THE WATERLINE

and a quieter moment.
