Vanitas II is on exhibit at the A. Smith Gallery in Johnson City, Texas. I am pleased Vanitas II received the “Juror’s Honorable Mention” award as part of the exhibit. This is one of several images that have received recognition within the past few months. The Tableau was quite a challenge. For example, after much searching, I finally found the “perfect bouquet” of flowers. But I had to let them wilt for several days so they would have that temporal look I was after. The lighting was a continuous LED set up instead of my usual strobe lighting. The powerful light burst from the strobe would have overpowered the soft glow of the candle.
Prints of this and my other still life images are available here. They are all very reasonably priced and make great gifts.
As always, thanks for visiting. Be safe. Be well.
