a way of life I - VIII

One photo and seven abstractions over it.

This image is an "abstraction", that is; a photo that is manipulated in an abstract way, but it's not really "abstract art" as such. It's a mix of abstract, impressionist, expressionist, and surreal - sometimes more one than another. Some of them are visually appealing at first look, and some are not.

Every pattern, colour, object, and texture you see in the seven abstractions is derived or extracted directly from the original picture. Nothing has been added that was not there from the start in some way.
