Horse study
Something in this composite reminded me of an old photograph. One of my first experiment with textures.
Graffiti is the name for images or lettering scratched, scrawled, painted or marked in any manner on property. Graffiti is often regarded by others as unsightly damage or unwanted vandalism.
Originally I had another picture titled Orange Peel but when I decided to upload this one I was conflicted – surely THIS one is far more apt for the Orange Peel title. I thought about calling them both Orange Peel but decided that just wouldn’t work. If I called this one Orange Peel it would detract from the other’s title, causing people to ask the question “Did he name that other one Orange Peel by mistake?” So I decided to save everyone a lot of anguish and I renamed the other one Orange Skin and passed the title of Orange Peel onto this far more deserving candidate. Anyway, this is a close up of part of a metal dinghy that is moored on the beach near where I live. Don’t ask me to analyze the shot too much coz I can’t really, it’s just one of those images that I like and I’m damned if I know why. I just dig the brightness of the orange, almost Mediterranean in it’s hue, the nautical ropes dangling across in contrast, and of course, the peeling and scraped paint that reveals a raw metal underneath. I could just imagine this little metal dinghy once upon a time with it’s completely bright orange interior intact, and the owner proud to have his new little “runabout”. Now it shows it’s age and it’s experience, possibly full of fishing trips, coastal explorations and general family fun. It makes me determined to have a similar little runabout for when my son is old enough to enjoy such things, to come on fishing trips with his Dad. Yes, it’s a fine little boat I think :o)

We all get stressed from time to time, how do you deal with it? Do you let your emotions run you? Why are there so many medications for stress on the market? Are the inventions of mankind meant to make life easier, or has it made life more stressful? Visit my blog Designing My Life
Sometimes when we take a closer look at things we notice patterns within, abstract art almost. And this is just one of those example, at first it was just metal, metal with a bit of wear and tear but then the scratchs and scrapes start to appear, almost claw like marks and what was just metal turns into something so much more. /

Causing yourself bodily injury, or letting someone else harm you is just wrong. However there is nothing morally ambiguous about having a t-shirt with claw marks on it. If you are so inclined you can say they are Wolverine claw marks.
