Fables and Folklore











































































































last year i went out on a limb and purchased a very large hand-tinting kit. i wanted to use them to tint a series on classic fairy tales. while brainstorming about locations and costumes, i thought about making a series based on folklore and fables from the maritimes and newfoundland.
So here's my next series: large-scale tinted photographs of fables, legends and stories from eastern canada. edmund dulac's work ( above) is my inspiration for colours and composition and mood. what do you think?

i've got a lot of research and reading to do.....
