October 16, 1793, digital photography manipulation, 10.5 x 7.5in, (26.67 x 19.05cm), $200.00 framed Although this an abstract composition, I saw a rich brocade and lace fabric with intricate embroidery. I shifted the hue to red. The top half of the image is still somewhat haute couture but the lower area of chaotic lines and exploding shapes suggested a scenario far removed from pomp and grandeur. I was looking for a title that would explain the duality of privilege and violence. Someone came immediately to mind. The title, October 16, 1793, is the date of Marie Antoinette's execution.

The Epilimnion 1, digital photography manipulation, 11.5 x 17.5in (29.2 x 44.45cm), 18 x 24in (framed), $300.00 In a small body of water such as a pond, the topmost layer of water is called the epilimnion. It is the warmest and most oxygenated layer and is therefore home to the majority of plants and animals.

The Critters Inside Your Head, digital photography manipulation, 10 x 10in (25.4 x 25.4cm), $25.00 This is an intriguing image both in terms of color and the tiny shapes inside the whole. Abstract though it is, people try to find recognizable shapes, especially faces, in order to have a point of reference. I see a chimpanzee, Miss Piggy and a rabbit. Good luck.

The Wedding Dress, digital photography manipulation, 10in x 8in (25.4 x 20.32cm), $25.00 I snapped a very blurry image (action shot) of my daughter trying on a wedding dress. The afternoon was busy but sane, nothing like the conflagration and deadly vapors in this image. I love the interaction of the colors especially orange and blue, one of my favorite color combinations.
