JerryGrasso 2.0

Posted 09-07-2010 at 03:20 PM by fotofinish (PIXelations)

From this point forward, my works will begin to move away from general nature and landscape and toward some aspect of abstract expression. What this means to me is that my images will try to primarily emphasize shape, form, or texture in an effort to evoke some thematic idea or mood. All of my works will be...

Something Different...

Well, this is my second attempt at visual art. I’ll show the first one some other time. Anyway, this second one, I spent 2 months of labor, 8 attempts, about 20 layers, and a gig and a half of size. I’ll post the image first, and the complete explanation of what I was trying to do at some other time. It is called "Daintree Reclamation." Here’s the intro:

This project for me evolved out of my recent Australian rainforest visit. This was my first rainforest and I was shocked
