My latest project...in black and white...to see the 2-D / 3-D effect better

To help you see the 2-dimensional / 3-dimensional "push-me-pull-you" effect of my latest project, I turned it into a black-and-white photograph....More......









See how the background merges with the shadows, even those between the cracks in the feathers and those falling from underneath one feather over the top of the next feather down?

This seemingly simple, but actually quite challenging type of design was inspired by the wonderful work of the Beggarstaff Brothers (who weren't called Beggarstaff, and who weren't brothers, but brothers-in-law) at the turn-of-the-last century: http://arsacupicturaestellae.blogspot.com/2010/08/meteoric-brothers-revolutionize-art.html

Just in case you're new to the blog, and wondering how it looked in color: (http://arsacupicturaestellae.blogspot.com/2011/09/wordless-wednesday-27.html)
