"Winging" Mobile Photomontage I am drawn to winge "Winging" Mobile Photomontage I am drawn to winged ones, birds, bats, insects, beetles, dragonflies. In these creations I use flying creatures to blend with my face. I am enjoying continuing to think about the numerous piece in the "Portrait of a Woman" project. Giving myself time to look more closely at pieces gives me opportunity to go deeper into individual artworks and make changes. Here I share with you an adjusted piece edited the original in the video earlier this week. Hope you enjoy. Is there something in your life you wish to look at more carefully ? . . . . . #winged #wingedcreatures #mobilevideo #susandetroy #adjusted#winged #wingedcreatures #mobilevideo #susandetroy #adjustedselves #techspressionism #techspressionismart #adjustedselves #artnxtlevel2021 #portraitofawoman #dragonflyart #butterflyart #selfportraitartist #livingfemale #livingfemaleartist #capcutapp #ipadedits #igshorts #wingsforflying #wingsareforflying #flyingwithwings #Iamthesubject #myface
"Wings Are For Flying" Mobile Video I am finding f "Wings Are For Flying" Mobile Video I am finding fun groupings in the "Portrait of a Woman" project. This week I share with you a subgroup I call "Wings Are For Flying." I am partial to winged creatures, birds, bats, insects, butterflies, dragonflies and beetles. When I can I use them in my art making. These four images were created over the past four years. Three of them incorporate my favorite winged capture who found me at Alsea Falls in Oregon. That winged one landed on my shoe and visited for several minuets. The dragonfly is from my print making art. Are you partial to winged ones? . . . . . #winged #wingedcreatures #mobilevideo #susandetroy #adjustedselves #techspressionism #techspressionismart #adjustedselves #artnxtlevel2021 #portraitofawoman #dragonflyart #butterflyart #selfportraitartist #livingfemale #livingfemaleartist #capcutapp #ipadedits #igshorts #wingsforflying #wingsareforflying #flyingwithwings #Iamthesubject #myface
“Red Divide” Mobile Story I am posting a dupl “Red Divide” Mobile Story I am posting a duplicate image (of a twin) to the one shared on @internationalonlineart I like it so much I am posting here, slightly altered and on the International group account. I constructed this piece specifically for my feature this week using several iPad editing apps to create a fantasy image story. My work is made specifically to generate thought and interpretation. When I see my piece I think …in addition to the obvious visual duality of mirrored selves there are a number of elements that set up oppositional ideas. .. maybe the story here is a fairytale of two sisters living in the woods or it might be a comment on our divisive relationship to nature. Does the bright red symbolize alarm or indicate female power? And the floating feathers … are they about being surrounded by the sweetness of nature or anout our existing in the midst bothersome never ending information? What are your reactions? . . . . . #videoart #portraitofawoman #selfreflection #igshorts #theymove #experimentalart #techspressionism #theappwhisperer #appdriven #artandaging #adjustedselves #digitalart #techspressionismart #digitalvideo #experimentalvideo #glitchart #femaleface #duality #storyinaframe #fantastical edit_lovers_united #best_moments_edit #izt_edit #bonvac_edits #la_vagabondes #edits_greatshots #edit_perfection  #all_superrealism   #super_photoeditz #ind_edits_ #editigramfriends
“Green Can Be Good” Mobile Video It’s is ex “Green Can Be Good” Mobile Video It’s is exciting to be posting in coordination with the feature on @internationalonlineart account where I am a member. This week I share with you here and on the International Online Collective artwork using glitch, video and different types of moving images. In the beginning of the pandemic I felt motivated to capture video. Over the past year and a half I’ve been attending workshops and learning how to edit and manipulate images so they move around. Do you share my fascination? . . . . . #videoart #portraitofawoman #selfreflection #igshorts #theymove #experimentalart #techspressionism #theappwhisperer #appdriven #artandaging #adjustedselves #digitalart #techspressionismart #digitalvideo #experimentalvideo #glitchart #femaleface #videoedting #greenisgood #glitchedits #itsmoving
