Rust Rapture installations
Rust Rapture installations.
Two new installations of my abstract photography collection called Rust Rapture.
First is a 42 x 36 canvas print of “Aqua Marine” a close shot of the front fender of a 1935 GM Truck rat rod. This is hanging in the Den of Ryan and Whitney Hsu in Winston Salem.

The second is “Fusion” which I extracted from the driver door of a 1940 Buick rat rod. This one is hanging in the entry foyer of the home of Robin and Wayne Mosle in Washingon, DC. This is a 60 x40 paper print on Epson Luster Paper.

Both of these prints are interesting because they each have an anchor point to give you a sense for what you are looking at. Fusion has a small door knob in the top left. And Aqua Marine has a bit of the headlight on the right.
Hobbit Huts in Austin
Hobbit Huts in Austin.
This is a different sort of architectural photography project. Patrick Dougherty is an sculptor who builds these huts out of sticks. When I read about these he was building at Pease Park in Austin, I just had to go do some photographic spot lighting and see if I could get that glowing Hobbit Hut feel out of them. This is what I got after masking 40 layers in Photoshop. Patrick’s home is near Chapel Hill, NC. He installs these all over the country.
