I originally created the base image for this image back in 2014 using a Nikon Coolpix L20 camera. I was in my backyard looking for something to photograph with little success when the camera bug whispered in my ear, why don't you photograph your own eye. I have made a lot of enhancements to come up with this image.
I hope that it causes you to realize how important the eye is to and for any artist. It is the most basic tool any ary visually based artist has. With out it, it is nearly impossible to create any image. It is the first tool my mind uses to create a concept of an image I want to create. It allows me to aim my camera and visualize the final image before I press the shutter. All in all it can be the doorway into the soul of the artist.
