life is the art of the possible

I have a 36 year old mobile phone factory manager from South Wales to thank for inspiring this image. Have you heard of--or more accurately HEARD--Paul Potts singing Nessun Dorma in the Britains Got Talent competition? If not, please give youself a treat and check it out on YouTube. This young man shows that we never know what treasures lie hidden behind seemingly ordinary exteriors. Even within ourselves.

For instance, this composite photo started life as peeling paint on the window sill of an unused greenhouse attached to our local high school. With the addition of a curved tulip leaf, some cliffs seen outside my train window in New Mexico and lots of Photoshop manipulations, it has become the abstract you see above.

Yes, life is the art of the possible.

Superb, by the shapes, the colors, the textures. This wave crossing the image has a feel of time passing by (don't know if that makes sense, it does for me though)

It would appear that for you, nothing is impossible and all of life is art!

Paul Potts is great. I am not into opera but he is incredible. I have been following the story. Great work on this one. It is so seamlessly put together. You are very talented.

I like the new age feel of this photo, but also it has a contemporary art look as well. Great JOB : )
