So this is the Dilation Exercise for May 2009.
I hope this will be a fun work out for your imagination and I encourage you to participate with comments. If you come back to the blog and can't find this post, look for it in the "Dilation Contest" category.
Please look at the picture and imagine for it a one sentence caption of dialog and a one sentence caption of narrative. Write these down and transmit the sentences to me via the comments option at the bottom of this post. Try to produce captions that compliment the image without overly defining what's going on in the picture. It helps if the captions suggest something beyond the picture plane. For examples of these captioned images and more information about this project and contest, go to Imagination Work Out and Contest.
The title of this painting is not important here. More important is what happens in your imagination when you view the image. What's going on here?
As Alan does with his contest, I will choose my favorite of the captions offered for the March '09 Dilation Exercise and declare a winner on or about the 31st of March, 2009. The winner will have the image with his or her caption and name entered into the “Dilation Exercise” album in the coppermine gallery on my web site. The winner will win an 8" x 10" matted print of the contest image. It will be necessary to have the winner's shipping address in order to deliver the print. Sorry, but the print prize will only be delivered to an address within the continental United States.

Sarah had convinced herself that something of her loving husband still remained in this creature--until he started eating the children. "Richard, I want a divorce."

"Is someone there? .... I'm warning you... I'm not afraid... I'VE GOT A GUN."
With a 2-to-1 legs to bullets ratio, there's time to be messy.
"Its okay Sssis, Mum and Dad are here too."
Susan felt a cold lump of lead in her stomach as she detected the susurrant sound of her brother's voice.
"At a certain point they're just not cute anymore, and I won't be caught napping like my poor late husband."
When mature her offspring established independence from mom and dad in a particularly deadly fashion.
Thank all of you very much for contributing to the May Dilation Exercise.
The winner of the May Dilation Exercise is Michael Harold. Congratulations.
