Out of the bouquet of a beautiful bride … cast into the foreverness of the ocean of love.

Buy it here ThomasDodd.com/Store “There, on the pendent boughs her coronet weeds / Clambering to hang, an envious sliver broke; / When down her weedy trophies and herself / Fell in the weeping brook. Her clothes spread wide; / And, mermaid-like, awhile they bore her up: / Which time she chanted snatches of old tunes; / As one incapable of her own distress, / Or like a creature native and indued / Unto that element: but long it could not be / Till that her garments, heavy with their drink, / Pull’d the poor wretch from her melodious lay / To muddy death…” (Hamlet – Act 4. Scene VII)
[from before time…] . she owns his soul . it belonged to her / even before she’s found him / from before time it’s always been hers his heartbeats.. / found only in hers his breath.. / wrapped around her finger his dreams / his words / resonated / only with her rhythm it belonged to her / it’s always been hers and she belonged to it / as it belonged to her . his stay.. too far and away / and he carried its scent / scent that belonged to her her tears / indigo and black / rained upon him / his scent / his soul the ocean swelled / to deeper indigo / and into blacker black he remained / on the other side still she owned it / it belonged to her / it’s always been hers abyss swelled / from prussian / to deeper indigo / and into blacker black . her dream continues . o9.3o.2oo8 / acrylic on paper / 18”x24” .

Model is Missy / Makeup and Hair by Loran Bean / Assistant – Adam / Photography and Post by myself Comments are very appreciated. please leave one! I thought I might say a little bit about how we got these Ophelia shots. Missy is a VERY talented photographer friend of mine (to view her work, go http://missyjanek.deviantart.com/) and she has also modeled for me in the past. I thought she’d be great for this concept, so we started about 3pm yesterday. All was going well until she got in the pool and said “I don’t know how to swim!” So we struggled and propped her up with pool noodles and floaties and Adam even held her legs while she tried to stay afloat. I felt like she really was going to drown a couple of times! (We kept her in the shallow end, of course! and my dog was keeping watch as life guard.) For someone who had not really been in water before, I think she did a great job. :)

she used to dream in bleu prussien / the color of spanish sky at night he used to dream in ombre / honey and maple syrup / they are the colors of her eyes / where he’s once drowned she knows this / because she’s held him once that is… / in her eyes . o2.18.2oo9 / colored pencil (prismacolor) / in/on moleskine® / digital (leaf and shadows) .
This photograph marks a key turning point in my photography! I have now realised that I was simply trying to hard. I was striving for perfection, not creativity. Vogue, not fun shot. So from now on, I think you’ll see a whole new side of me! I’m not sure where the idea came from. I was just kinda wondering what it would be like to drown in cornflakes… / I had much fun doing this & discovered a) its possible to inhale cornflakes. And kind of painful… b) Putting a whole box of cornflakes in your bed makes for uncomfortable sleeping, even when you THINK you’ve got rid of every last crumb… Self portrait under constant studio lighting. Camera handheld at a funny angle… :) Canon 450D / (Face shot:) / F-stop: 4.5 / Exposure time: 1/20sec. / ISO-speed: 800 / Focal length: 33mm Edited on PS CS3!

Please see RoyAllenHunt’s written piece: Are You Ok With This. His incredible song is a compliment to this piece. See here for how I created this shot. I really thought I would wait at least two weeks before I tried this again, but then I went hunting in the pantry and found more dye and well, curiosity and motivation got the better of me tonight! Red and green dye this time around. Green was dropped in first, and allowed to swirl around a fair bit, then the red came in. It looked so much like blood coursing through someone, or something..
