Found Out Again...

A double occurrence of 'roadkill' found along & upon a stretch of the 'double black lines' yesterday, & recorded in the habitual 'pictorial' manner.


Considered tonally rather than in terms of hue (though itself quite a pleasant change from the usually-encountered 'regular', original version of the brand), the first instance suggested the application of a little simple digital manipulation once the image had been returned home & uploaded to the old PC, with this subsequent monochrome representation of the subject suggesting a graphite drawing of such (as, indeed, the small handful of original treatments of such subject matter were - please refer to the March & April 2009 archives for such evidence), perhaps, rather than the usual 'paintings' - 'mostly monochrome', in the modernist-minimalist idiom, as they might appear.


The second of the objects-as-found & 'pictured'...


proved rather interesting & particularly attractive for the primary-coloured & geometrically-designed appearance it presents, which, also in relation to painted 'black' lines, suggested, however fancifully & tenuously (in the finest traditions of TOoT!), something just a little Mondrianesque occurring within the scene.

A good point trenchantly put - how do you consider any of this to be saying nothing to 'the' or whatever purpose?
