Blue and Gray

I once read an article about photographing flowers through shower glass (plastic).  The idea was to make a photo appear more impressionistic than just straight forward photography.  So I tried it and rather liked the result.  I suggest using it on flowers to give  a different effect.  Since I have been doing a fair amount of palette knife painting I thought this particular picture would work well with the knife.  It does look somewhat impressionistic and also a bit abstract.  Wildflowers growing out of cracks in rocks has been given a new look.  Haven't decided yet whether or not I like it in oil but I am getting used to it and may try others.  Let me know what you think!  For the adventurous,  it is available directly from the artist.  Contact me at pwhitacre@att.net
