An accidental photo I took of a carpet. Not really sure how it happened, and it’s blurry because my hand was moving. (I intended to take a picture of a faraway sign so I could then enlarge the photo and read the small print on the sign, LOL 😂 )
Instead I got this rainy-day, impressionistic image and decided I kind of liked it.
I am a college professor (PhD in English, concentration rhetoric) at Milwaukee School of Engineering, where I teach film and media studies, political science, digital society, digital storytelling, writing for digital media, and communication. While fragments of my teaching and scholarship interests may quite naturally meander over to my blog, this space is intended to function as a creative outlet, not as part of my professional practice. Opinions are my own, etc.
That’s really all I saw, too. Except that the colors I saw were gray, olive green, beige, and maybe the tiniest hint of mauve. I have no idea what colors the original carpet has. I was busy doing other things and didn’t pay attention or take a second look. I guess what I really likedI about this picture was just its overall look, like a streaky, patchy abstract painting.
Looks like a watercolor of a sandstorm. Or maybe an evening rainstorm. (I can see the deer, too. Poor thing is getting either drenched or sand blasted.)

I can almost see a deer in the middle. Kind of a rorschach test. Cool!

Now that you bring up seeing a deer, I’m thinking this also has kind of a camo look going.

I’m afraid I don’t see anything other than various shades of grey.

I like that sandstorm image. I can see it. Poor dear deer, though!
