Eyeing Violet is from my newest folder of pix, just edited a couple days ago. And it's one of those photos I find myself wanting to apologize for liking. It has a sort of greeting card quality and somehow that makes it less artistic? LOL, and what did I just say here a few days ago about the "masterpiece complex" that demands all one produces be a classic? So I restate for my own benefit that art serves many different tastes and functions. And, darn it all, one of those functions is to please the eye of the producer. And this producer enjoys looking at this result. (BTW, I did try it without that "poster line" effect but although it's less like a greeting card or illustration that way, it doesn't have much of a "pop" either. So I have left in the dark outlining.)
