YUKON SEASONS: RIGHT

YUKON SEASONS: RIGHT - PHASE 11

March 18, 2003

Spring is mounting a serious effort to make headway against Winter. It may have gained the upper hand ... ah, but hope doth 'spring' eternal! :)

It feels so good to be working on this bear. The lines and curves melt underneath my blades in sumptuous abandon, revealing what, I hope, looks like a wet bear with fish. Pure joy.

I have purchased an "Ott Light" to aid me in my endeavors, and the difference is truly remarkable. The full spectrum, florescent floor lamp, was developed for Disney to provide natural-artificial light for a flower photoshoot. I don't know how I have managed all these years without it! It is so easy on the eyes, reducing strain and illuminating hard to see areas that I may not have treated adequately in the past.

The picture below was taken at night, so there is no daylight influence. The results of the image reflect the true colour of the antler. Remarkable!

Till next time,

Shane
