First begun as color studies for a painting using pastels, Shanna Galloway has developed a series of photographs of skies and clouds with their ever-changing and expressive colors.

I welcome your interpretations.

    Now the clouds appear to be pushing this small land mass out of existence. I know they're trees but I'm reading a different narrative into it.

    PasAdj: There is a sense of push in this one. To me it feels like an expansion or even explosion outward.
    In comparison with your earlier comment about compression, there would be that Martha Graham idea of Compression/Expansion - an idea she used in dance.

    dazzling, to borrow a word from Shanna. And when paired with the photo directly above there's kind of a narrative happening.

    Petrea: Good to see you here and to know that you have taken some time with each one. The sequencing of this series is very much a part of it. It becomes kind of cinematic.
