Book of Symbolism
I made this image through the dirty basement window of the Methodist church. I like shooting like this, because almost all the time the interiors are so dark that I don’t even know what will be in the image.
This was no different and it wasn’t until I downloaded my images that I found out that battered binder was marked “God in our lives. Symbolism.” With a hammer beside it. Who says the Universe doesn’t have a sense of humor?
In other news, I am very happy to announce that a series of my images were used by Texas musician Terri Hendrix in the music video for her song “Grieve.” Terri and I have talked for many years about maybe someday doing a project together, and the Universe just now decided this was the right time for it to happen. You can see/hear our project right here. I hope you like it, and I hope you’ll support Terri’s music.

I’m wondering about the symbolization of the paint thinner in a world where there doesn’t appear to be any paint.

That’s a good point. I guess it was such good paint thinner that it thinned even the paint that had been applied. But I am not sure about the symbolism either!
