Off 47: Romantic Pastoral
(2007)
Romanic Pastorals is a series of intimate whimsical art pieces bases on the rural landscape. In it is a bathtub grotto, discovered half done on Rt 47, that should have feature a Virgin Mary but was still half in the making when photographed. Now through the wonders of digital manipulation , it contains a series of unexpected inhabitants surrounded by lush and painterly backgrounds. The backgrounds are local, taken primarily from Sugarloaf and the mood is Italian Renaissance.
