This is the North Country and nothing is exactly the way it might be anywhere else. Katherine has been experimenting with scanner image-making, and has sent us her latest still life.
I have a feeling she’s onto something here.

Wow, a new media to play with…that is interesting… and WAY to distracting!

Very cool….had no idea scanners could do that! Hope Katherine keeps sharing with us 🙂

Definitely onto something! Beautiful still life, very limited palette, different textures–great!

OK, now, what I want to know is what all of us are doing goofing around online when we could be out playing in this beautiful day? And having asked the question, I’m outa here! Back later, of course.

Nice! I really like this a lot. Don’t know anything about scanners, though. Just coming inside after some raindrops scared me from harvesting onions in the garden.

Were they acorn raindrops?

Ha ha, no, they were “real” raindrops! Although our garden does kind of lie beneath the oak tree…

Take a simple office tool and you can create neat things. This is neat.

I agree as to the neatness. However, in my experience, scanners are anything but simple. I have to make some screenshots of the choices I have to make to get mine to do what I want it to do–and all I’ve been doing is archiving historic documents and photos. Now, though, Katherine has inspired me, and I have big ideas.

I saw some truly amazing examples of this kind of imaging at Tower Hill Botanical Gardens last summer. They were stunning.

The petoskey stone and those molars add patterns you just don’t see every day. Unless you’re a Michigan dentist of course.

I had not thought of that. Katherine? This image might make the perfect gift for a Michigan dentist. OK, veterinary dentist.

On Katherine’s behalf, thank you. I’m intrigued with the possibilities.
