I really admire painting. Although I have a certain degree of imagination, I lack in total the necessary dexterity to paint, in other words I can't draw a straight line.
For me personally painting is a purer art than photography. Image making, especially in it's purist form, is more about technology and craft.
It is possible to bring some of those sensibilities into photography, which is what I've attempted to do in this image.
The piece is all homegrown using parts of images from my own files. Thanks for taking a gander y'all.
