This one is a bit of a litmus test: Do you see red columns on a blue background or blue columns on a red background? Cooler colors usually recede, which makes it fun to try to pull them into the foreground. But I’m not sure that making the wider blue portions had that effect. Either way, I enjoy how the different combinations of red paint and blue sky are all the same until you look more closely. Some are bigger or smaller, some are brighter or darker; there’s a whole world of differences if you stop and look for a while.

This is a theme that I come back to often in my work. Other photoquilts that are all the same until you stop and look for the differences: Wheels; You’re Not Going To Wear That, Are You?, and Les Portes De Montpellier
