Greetings from Hudspeth County, Texas

I have been working through my images captured five years ago on my circumnavigation of the contiguous US. Some I've been uploading to Saatchi Art, others I'm keeping private for my Patreon subscribers.

What became very apparent with the latest batch is how totally inspired I get on a forty mile stretch of I-10 in western Texas.

Here is one in the original 53 Edge images (and it was the only "out the side window" view that rendered well in the 2014 version of Waterlogue:

This image, (which I'm only posting here):

Is compositionally very similar to this chalk pastel from 1994:

In 2014, I drove through at the perfect time, with the sun stating to set and the shadows growing long.

A Brand New Waterlogue

The image is not new. The technology is.

Compare to the 2014 version:

Waterlogue has improved over the past five years! There is now a desktop version, which is even better than the phone app [* I received a complementary copy of the software for being a beta tester].
I've decided to rework the 2014 On the Edge waterlogues and upload them to Saatchi Art, with the possibility to apply for The Other Art Fair LA, to be held September 5-8, 2019 in Santa Monica at Barker Hangar. The deadline is this coming Friday, so we'll see how far I get. Maybe I'll choose my favorite 25 for starters.

The original set (of which 41 remain) will travel to Troy, NY next month to be displayed at my 45th high school reunion!
