I thought you might be curious about the origins of the Pause final prints. Below are the oil paintings that are the basis for the final photo print distortions, thus far. Different from paintings as an end product, these paintings are literally a means to an end; serving multiple manipulations and the final photographic prints.

Wow! What a blaze of delicious colour.
I do tend to get carried away with color…but for this project I’ve got to go a little brighter to maintain some definition.
What a fascinating group, and you tell us so much about each – possibly things they don’t know themselves.
Ah, there’s an idea for discussion:)
Wow these paintings are phenomenal! Each one conveys so much personality. The one in the center speaks to me the most because I wish I was meditating or napping in the sun. Beautiful!
Thanks so much Kim. These are all people I know, so personality abounds!
Very nice paintings…You certainly know how to use oils.
Thanks Hansi!
masterpieces
Oh thank you Antonio!
These are amazingly brilliant… I wish I had better words to describe your wonderful talent; although, I think they speak for themselves
Oh such a poetic vision! The reality falls oh so short;)
You are too kind. Thanks so much.
Beautiful!
It’s interesting that you included fabric in each painting as the panting would eventually be transferred to fabric.
(I imagine you photographing the end result lined up on a clothesline with gentle shiftings of expression in the breeze…)
These are so awesome. You are incredibly talented!!
You are very kind.
