Some details from the neighborhood

Someone recently asked me what it’s like to see with an artist’s eye. I replied that I didn’t know how to see any other way.

I have taken to taking my camera with me and taking pictures of the things that catch my eye as I go around the neighborhood.

I live in a visually rich place.

I had once spent the summer in the Texas Hill Country. It was so bare there you looked at the spaces between things to make sense of your environment.

 

Here you see pattern on top of pattern. Shapes on top of shapes.

There is always something to catch my eye.

One’s eyes are always full here. There is so much to take in.
