Colored Arrows A colorful flight of fancy into an abstract realm is what this picture reminds me of. When I first took the photograph I saw arrows for some reason. Two years later I am looking at it and not seeing arrows anymore? What do you see here in this abstract photograph? —- This picture started out as a picture of handblown glass created by Garth Mudge of Glassworks. Glassworks is located downtown Winthrop Wa (Washington State), in the beautiful […]

I have just three things to teach: simplicity, patience, compassion. These three are your greatest treasures. ~Lao Tzu

Ballerina This photograph reminds me of a ballet slipper. A magical ballet slipper sparkling with fairy dust. Surrounded by beautiful color and magical tones of sound and light. Dancing for the spirit of creativity in all of us. Simplicity and beauty are things that we love. It is nice when all that we want can be captured in a photograph. Red is a very powerful color. It could be war, love, fear, evil, peace, sensuality, whatever we interpret it to […]

Gratitude is the sign of noble souls. ~Aesop

Noble Colors I am not sure exactly why this image seems so noble to me. Maybe it is the sense of infinity in the center? Maybe because the colors are so bold and yet understated at the same time. Bright, vivid and alive. I see dimensions of color and light. I see the universe and all of the stars contained therein. As you can see, I have quite the imagination 🙂 This is a photograph of a piece of glass […]

Hearts Abstract Macro Glass Photograph by Omaste Witkowski owFotoGrafik.com

Everyone has been made for some particular work, and the desire for that work has been put in every heart. ~Rumi

Hearts This photograph reminds me of a heart. The spidery lines remind me of veins. Also I am in love with the photograph. The glowing red center and overall mini mystery of a creative process. This image started me on my artistic journey that has brought me here. It was the first picture I ever sold anyone. I was exploring the idea of using my glass ornaments as models for Macro photographs. A friend of mine saw some of my […]

I think that passion and love and pain are all bearable, and they go to make love beautiful. ~Robert Plant

Snakeskin Goddess There is an intensely creative part of me that sees emotions in color and when I look at this photograph I see so many shades of love and life. Macro photographs of glass are so much fun. I was enthralled for many months using a variety of lights and lenses to capture as much color as I could from many art objects. Glass vases and ornaments and cups and plates and many many more. I spent hours and […]

No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path. ~Buddha

Abstract Self Portrait This photograph is really fascinating to me because I look at it and I see a self-portrait waiting. I see an empty space that I can imagine any version of myself I want to see. It is such a perfect frame for a face and an idea. The edges are beautiful and remind me of a specialty picture frame. Crystal or diamond or some other exquisite stone are a reminder that life is sacred and that we […]

You don’t drown by falling in the water; you drown by staying there. ~Edwin Louis Cole

Aquatic Wonder. A deep pool of clean clear water beckons. Will you heed its call and come running or will you sit by quietly and ponder the vast empty blue pool. Shades of blue are soothing and yet when you fall in you may be swept away. Water is very relaxing to me and yet in the wrong moment it can be overwhelming in its intensity. I see a vast body of water sitting and waiting to be discovered. waves […]

Wild Eyes. The shades of green and pink in this photograph are really a lovely combination in my opinion. I really love the way that they blend into each other and yet have a unique place in the overall composition by themselves. They are working together to present an abstract realm to us. I imagine that I see a beautiful eye that is placed on a lovely animal. This magical creature sees things that we can only imagine and they […]

Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man’s character, give him power. ~Abraham Lincoln

During my months of glass studies this is one of my favorite images that I produced. I feel really interesting emotions when I look at this photograph. I see a godlike creature standing at the edge of the universe and looking into infinity. I really enjoy the many fine details that are in all of the areas on this photo and yet I am confused by the depth of emotion that I feel when I look at it. I see […]

Glass and Light are conducting a symphony of color in every picture. Can you hear the true tones of absolute bliss.

Welcome their vibrant voices and get lost in the songs. Glass of any color in a window will produce the most amazing color concert ever. I am inspired by glass art. I have collected it for more than 25 years and I will continue to collect for the rest of my life. By iteslf it is beautiful and, to me, almost magical. When sun shines through it these creations come alive. I have a large window in my studio that […]
