ASTIGMATISM

This was my 2017 entry in the blueline arts membership show.  It is a blurry vision of our flag and the Pledge of Allegiance.  It comes from my frustration over the widening gulf between factions in our nation.  We seem to be moving farther and farther from a United States.  I chose the location of the words carefully.  Allegiance, United States, Republic, One Nation, Liberty and Justice.  The view is blurred.  The flag is out of focus, multiple images, disappearing.

blueline arts membership show for 2015

Next Saturday is the opening of the 2015 membership show.  I submitted three items; one from my universe/space series, one from my toy soldiers series and a photograph I shot while just walking down a street in Seattle one rainy night.  The judges picked City Street for the exhibit.

This is the same image I posted in September, after an additional 4 month's work.  I have been working on this one image for nearly 6 months.  I think I am done with it.
