WooHoo! Now we’re cookin’!

At long last I have completed some projects that I have been working on for an extended period of time…..sometimes things just don’t wanna get done.

Here is a photograph of a piece I call Million Mile Reflections. My subject was a victim of Alzheimer’s. Such a tragedy. Anyway, I was inspired by the look in his eyes, both before and after the ravages of the disease. I’m always amazed by what a person can see in another person’s eyes.

Thank you all again for coming by. Please come again soon to see what else crops up on Quiet Eloquence!

Million Mile Reflections

From time to time as I start another project, I think about what it would be like to be a fly on the wall and watch the goings on of this process. So, with that in mind, I had my Pop take some pictures as I started a new project. I was surprised (dismally) by all the various expressions on my face as I worked. I’m glad no one can watch.

This new project I am calling (for now) Million Mile Reflections. My subject is one who lead a full and interesting life in different areas only to end under the heavy hand of Alzheimer’s Disease. I wanted to show how clearly one can see how this horrible disease closes the curtains of the eyes of ones who suffer its grip. My heart breaks for those and those who have to watch it from start to finish.

Here is the beginning of this new project.
