EDIT: Now with new hosting!

The concept behind this was my imagining/interpretation of seldom depicted minor figures from Greek mythology. I've never really considered this a "completed" project, but so far I've dealt with Merope, the Lampades and the Napaeae.

Napaeae: Shy, mirthful nymphs of the forest. Companions of Artemis
Merope: Daughter of Helios and one of the Heliades. Her name means "bee mask" which has later been reinterpreted as "honey faced" or eloquent.
Lampades: Nymphs of the underworld and companions of Hecate. The light from their torches is said to drive men insane.

Anyway. Pix!

Lampades

Prana

Kundalini

Of course! Traditional silver prints. In the darkroom and everything. Anyone interested in buying a print? Wink

I was married to a photographer for 18 years and know my way around the darkroom very well. One reason I can appreciate the subtly of tones.

I don't collect photograps, but these are nice enough for sales purposes. Keep up the practice and nice work!

Ah yes, but where to hawk my wares? I've got zero experience in that realm, sadly. I'd love for them to cover selling your work in photo class...
