this pic is one of 384 in a freshly printed book/catalogue with the name "WORKS". it's in a4, hardcover, 128 pages on 135 g/m² glossy paper and it's available from now on, you may order it via taon.arts@gmx.de or right here on ipernity... ;-)
"WORKS" is an overview of my artistic activities of the last decade mainly, costs 26 € + shipping and it is the reason why i was absent the last weeks... hard work... 8-)
a cinematic impression you may get on www.taonarts.com or on www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ECLIt6dBx4&feature=youtu.be ...

after some exhibitions, the work on several pics and my book project i hope to have more time now for being active in iper again !

A BIG THANKS FOR YOUR PATIENCE WITH ME ! ;-)

(and forgive me, please, if i'm not very generous with comments the first time, but i'll show my appreciation with these yellow stars...) ;-)

i'm really surprised about the acceptance, the appreciation and the support for my first abstractaon (I.1) on iper and i'm really grateful for ! THANK YOU VERY MUCH !
this shows that art still has its place on this platform, although some members don't like arts and/or artists and say this very clear.
i won't show all of my abstractaons here, would be too much maybe...i began with I.1, here you see I.4... I.2 and I.3 you may see on my website (link above), soon i will upload there the next series, here on iper i will show you some of them... 8-)

THANKS A LOT again, have fun and good light ! ;-)

p.s.: for I.1 you needed sunglasses after 1 minute of watching, here they are not necessary... :-)

everyone who follows me since a while knows my affinity to abstract processing. base of each of my works have been photographs, always. to work with a photo means not to lose the contact with this base, the photo is always the boss of the developing image, all processing must fit to it. this is a challenge and a big pleasure at the same time and over the years i discovered many many kinds of treatment and techniques.

since a longer time the desire to work in a completely free way was growing in me and now it exploded... :-) to work independent to photos, independent to something that forces me into a corset, was a big wish of mine. and now i realized it... to play with lines, forms and the opportunities to combine them is a great pleasure and opens visual doors i never expected.

from now on i will show you the results of my completely free activity in digital abstract art. this doesn't mean that i give up my normal work, but at the moment i'm keen on this kind of creating pictures.

my images i call "abstractaons" and i'll just number them not to disturb your imaginations and fantasies by a title that points the way.

i hope, you have the same fun in beholding my abstractaons like me creating them ! ;-)

ipernity version
alternative title: neither.in.nor.out

original version on www.taonarts.com (part of the front gif) or (single): www.taonarts.com/nudes-2

so, dear friends, contacts and visitors, the overtake of iper by ima comes closer, means: a lot of things will change... a lot of things have changed already, many members have left the platform and searched/found a new home in other communities. others reduced their activities or stopped them completely and some last survivors are still here and try to keep the platform alive by their tireless activities. my biggest respect for the people from ima ! to have cr as a negotiation partner invites more to run away than to continue, i guess... and to spend so much time and energy for this project is no matter of course!

but when the overtake is realized, only the first part of all is done, nobody can say whether iper in its new form will be able to survive. i said it here, i said it there: without free accounts i don't see any chance for iper to attract enough people who are motivated to become paying members. i'm afraid that iper will turn into a community of people with an income of western standard only, others will see the fees and have a look for cheaper options. i have my doubts that this is the way to get enough club members to let the platform survive. how many crowdfundings will be necessary ? how many members will donate next time ? and overnext ? to base all hopes on a closure of flickr and that the members from there will be the rescue for ipernity – how realistic is that ?

i'm on this platform since more than 9 years, i began my artistical carreer here and i'll be sad if ima will close my account, because i won't pay 50 usd/year and don't want to be a member of an elitist community, but obviously this will be the way of the new iper.
if all continues as proclaimed, iper will have one artist less... not everyone will be sad about that, for all others who want see my works also in the future: www.taonarts.com, you're invited to have a look and/or leave a comment ! ;-) if you want to tell me some words more - my mail adress you find on the right side of my frontpage there...
whether i'll be active again on other communities i haven't decided yet, at least i have accounts on flickr, fotocommunity, hq23 and 500px., but at the moment they're sleeping... and maybe there's still a chance that iper will offer a cheaper membership than 50 usd/year... ;-)

we'll see...

have fun, be creative, take care !
