Who What When Where Why

Daylight has been saved
From what we may never know
Who cares, it’s over

Sunday, November 2, 2014. Inspired by our seeming obsession to schedule our lives, I chose to celebrate the end of Daylight Savings Time. I wrote the haiku, Who What When Where Why before created the image Who When Who using Art Rage 4 software. For the image, I oversimplified the dawn and adjusted the resolution to be lower than my usual settings, because I wanted a crass yet murky visual.

That is some really cool artwork. I never heard of Art Rage 4. I used to use Photoshop CS3 but it wasn’t compatible with Win7 so I switched to Gimp – Open source. I was a pretty advanced PS user so the learning curve with Gimp wasn’t bad. It’s not a bad substitute, especially since the things I do are for fun. Glad we found each other! 😀

It hasn’t been saved from my children, that’s for sure! I enjoyed the colors used here, especially the owl’s eyes, because they look a little eerie in the image.

I really enjoyed the color of the owl’s eyes. They’re a little eerie, which works well with the poem.

I really like the way the sunlight streaks across the gloominess. This is beautiful! Thanks for the likes and follow, I’m glad I got the chance to come look at your artwork. Hard to believe it’s done on software! 🙂
