Description
To see a World in a Grain of SandAnd a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.
-William Blake
-----
In Production:
The flower is real... it tasted... odd.
Post Production:
Cropped square. Added my sky curves pre-set over my raging mist at around 50%.
-----
The literature taken from Auguries of Innocence by William Blake.

I'm really digging how beautiful this is.
You really are into the whole "imma crop the top of your head. SAY GOODBYE TO YOUR EYES!!!11!" thing.

Thank you! I always thought it added some kind of simple implications. Usually in portraiture classes they tell us "MAKE THEM HAVE EYE CONTACT" but the rest of our bodies can say so much more than our eyes.

I think there may be a sense of ambiguity, and it makes it all the more provocative by not adding the eyes, most of the time.
And sorry if I'm such a n00b, but what's portraiture? I don't take classes or anything xD. I'm just a street-smarts(orly?)n00b.

Haha. I don't take classes either. I just buy a lot of books. Portraiture is basically any artistic interpretation of the human frame.
