My first ever building a frame, stretching canvas, and mounting a painting! Although it took me three days from start to finish (and MANY curse words) I am happy with the final product.
"Enchanted Pond" was delivered to our PR girl Dawn Dorgan yesterday. From the moment D saw this painting she literally could not take her eyes off of it...she fell in love with it. The figure you see in the water is her at the "Lady of the Lake" shoot for the book. I was on a ladder high above shooting downwards, capturing her looking up and RIGHT at US (as it appears in the painting)! Certainly did not know this shot would be used in a painting...but there ya go. I learned long, long ago to surrender to the visions, voices, lights, drums and music that I hear during a shoot. They are rarely experienced or seen by the subject(s) being shot...but to me, it is as real as the subject herself. This was one of those times.
Dawn does alot of promotion for MWS and keeps the Project Manager and myself aware and alert of all things "Mystic"...like trying to teach me how to navigate FB...ha, no easy task! This was a very small gift to a gal who's heart is as big as Dallas and has the loyalty of a true African Lioness.
Thanks D - we appreciate all your work and dedication!
