"Strange Perceptions From the Opium Den"

I continue to play around with a concept hinted at in Wednesday's post. The image there, "Squinting into the Wind", now resides in The Nightmare Series along with today's post while I continue to ponder the new body of work. The trouble is that the imagery fits comfortably within a pair of existing groups, the above mentioned and The Making Faces Series, so I guess my real dilemma is answering the question: "Does it need its own room?" In time it actually may but for now, it's a group of files whose name will remain a closely guarded secret a little bit longer.

"Casual Blue Stripes"

An early start here, a late start at the office and a L-O-N-G day for me. So, something short and sweet before heading out to greet the day. While looking through the work file for this image I found a very different treatment that will fit perfectly in The Nightmare Series. It's so creepy and gruesome that I can't believe I didn't think of it for Monday Monday! Oh well, next time! :D

"The Zombie"

Like Mayflies, the troubles I've been having most of the month are beginning to disappear. At least, they're becoming less pesky and the last few days have elicited some positive results, one of them being tonight's post. As it happens, this piece fell into the relatively dormant Nightmare Series. The beginnings of which arose from a very bad photo of my granddaughter and I can't remember when I last posted something from those files. I still have a few tucked away, waiting, rather demanding, a bit more finish. Always, there's work to do (sigh)!
