My concept for this week’s challenge was based on my dad’s career as a paleontologist. Digging in the dirt and mud was a regular part of his job, and an aspect he enjoyed thoroughly.

I had a bit of a setback with this image due to the huge snowstorm this past week, and an unintended consequence is that my color palette came out a bit “muddy” as well. At any rate, I’m really enjoying these weekly challenges and for having another good excuse to push myself to be more productive/creative, or as my meditation teacher is fond of saying, ” Active, positive, creative!”
