passage by Nicole Ryan I saw you run past the end of my bed / pretending to be a dark shadow / last night / yes i saw you / between the heavy lids / of my eyes / you fly / in and out / through time and space / and i know that you know / that i know / what it takes you come around here / with trails of the past / the electric light / buzzing around you / making you / enveloping you enlightening me you’re the shape that you always were / only prettier / and you set me alive / reminding me that you’re beside me / still you don’t surprise me / i’ve been waiting for you / and wondering / what took you so long. © ryan
I’ve decided to upload some of my portrait work to show people what I like to do (and so you don’t get too sick of my mug!) with portraits.. My aim in photography is to do portraits that transform people into how they see themselves and not just the every day you, something you can show the Grandkids that makes their jaw drop! Something that you can be proud of for the rest of time..
I love eye play… I always find them fascinating and piercing in the right light..
Grandma’s Home by Nicole Ryan There’s a place / where grandma sat / on the porch / with a rocking chair / a big heart / and a smile that didn’t care / if your shoes were wet / if you feet were muddy / if you face was dirty / and when you were hurting / she’d pick you up / and carry you inside / in her big arms / she’d sit you on the table / where you never ever could sit / otherwise / and she’d pat / and dab / and whisper / it’s o.k / it’s alright / with a bandaid / stuck on just right / and she’d send you back out / into the world / and you’d run with a limp / but you’d soon forget / about the pain / there were games / to be played. That house was always so warm. When Poppy died / Grandma still kept it warm / she let us do things / that he never did / and she never got upset / or said / “Don’t slam the damn door!” / she never ever said / anything less than love. That house was always so warm. The yard was big / and the trees were bigger / we’d climb / and dangle stars from the limbs / and bells from the twigs / and we’d play outside / at that time of day / when it wasn’t quite dark / when it wasn’t quite light / and we’d hide and seek / and squeel and get giddy / running around / through the bells and stars. We’d go to Grandma’s after school / and run toward the smell / of the hot cakes / of the love / of Grandma’s perfume / and we opened that front gate / with pride / and a sigh / because it always made that same noise / to let us know / we were at the right house / it was home. We knew everyone wanted to live there / because that house was always so warm. People would look and smile / and stop and take a flower from the front / sometimes / the kids would steal / pickets from the fence / and play / rah / rah / rah / all the way home / like pirates / and prisoners / and war men / having fun / when things weren’t serious / and days were long / but never long enough / I knew / that they were taking a picket / home to their parents / so that they could start building a house / just like Grandma’s; because that house was always so warm. © ryan

Added text as wanted to, yet felt it worked as well. / At this stage I felt I was holding a lot of words & emotions that I couldn’t let pass my lips. / Hence, the expressionistic style I used, loosely applying paint, letting it drip and layer over eachother to create interesting effects to the face. painted by Nicole Whitty SOLD as a Canvas Print

this is my (nearly 13 yr old) daughter doing cartwheels in the water at hervey bay… looking at this image makes me think of my childhood for some reason, not sure if it’s because i have just celebrated my 20 yr school reunion and am feeling a little nostalgic… and old… and quite certain i couldn’t do cartwheels anymore, let alone in the water on wet sand :-( /
