de.par.ture \ n 1: the act of going away.
__________ it happens to all of us at some point. one way or another. __________ tinkering with some new textural techniques. working from a book by maxine masterfield called 'painting the spirit of nature'. saw this piece by marti m. fenker in the book and thought i'd try my hand at her(?) technique to recreate it. also threw in a few of my own. -d ps- (my apologies to uselessjack.) Daily DeviationGiven 2007-12-31Peoples choice for the last Daily Deviation of 2007 is D E P A R T U R E by `dholms and with very good reason. Lovely use of tones, colour, texture and compostion, it truly entices the eye. (Featured by `RockGirl1582) Comments
