A blank page or canvas
The challenge: bring order to the whole
Through design 
Composition
Tension 
Balance
Light 
And harmony

The light 

And why is it you always get to sit in the shade while I have to stand in the sun?

Dot, if you wish to be a good model you must learn to concentrate
Hold the pose
Look out at the water
