The human eye can choose focus amazingly fast. I walk through the woods/world and see things that inspire me.
Then when I try to take a photo to capture what I see – it is not the same.
But I don’t give up.
- I take lots of pictures.
- I change the angle.
- I get closer.
- I wait for better light
I think this persistence pays off with a pleasing picture every so often. This idea can apply to printmaking and other types of mark making.
So I encourage you to be persistent and change your perspective. And eventually the magic will happen.
