hello friends.... it's time for THREE :: LIGHT - the third installment of shari and my project.

SHARI'S images and sound

ME ::



i have been noticing lately how much i am affected by light so when shari suggested the word it seemed to fit. getting up early 4 days of the week and watching how rapidly the light and sun moves in the sky in the morning... from gray haze to light pink to more intense pink orange to finally morning light.... on my drive to hayward the sun is low in the sky and practically blinding.

light :: bright :: natural :: flourescent [yuck] :: candle :: moonlight :: starlight :: tungsten :: opposite : dark/shadow :: basking in light :: red light district :: the SAD disorder [which i think i'd have if i lived further north] :: emitting light :: spiritual light ::

and i couldn't help but think of : light as a feather stiff as a board - did you ever play??



but what i really wanted to document with light was how fleeting it is.... slight changes make the world of difference....



the light from the window at the top of my stairs - i took the photo each morning right before i left. notice how on friday i didn't leave the house until 11am and the light is yellow - unlike any of the other ones....

i also thought of these older pictures of mine that seemed to fit light...look here, and here .

next week our project will be back on shari's space.

thanks for all the cupcake/studio love. i'll have pics of the show and i'll talk about the opening next time....

happy monday!
