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.

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.
