Take a Fence

Comment:
FANTASTIC .. !! ..
i'm so glad i waited over 20 seconds for this to load .. !! .. ;)
the shapes are wonderful .. what a brilliant abstract ..
this should most definitely be printed and hung on a wall ..
i can totally see this in an exhibition .. with those arty types standing in front of it drinking wine and making intelligent comments ..
this is certainly outstanding ...

Learning Fractions

Comment:
dont know exactly what it is about this that draws me in ..
of course i love black and white and high contrast when it works ..
but i also like images that arent immediately obvious .. and this takes the cake where that's concerned ..
those things do draw me in .. but this has an added 'something' .. and i'm not even going to try and put that into words .. :)

a few days later .. just having another look ..
this makes me think of graves, fish tanks and the macabre ..
just finished watching the netflix series dirty john .. that might have had an influence on how i've interpreted this .. !! .. ;)
