Fidelity




Convenience trumps resolution.
It's hard to resist walking out unfettered by sketchbooks, instruments.
The wafer of technology that rides in my pocket, packs a multitude of colors, thicknesses, and looks to your lines. You got your charcoal and smudge tool, eraser, possibilities to save in stages.
Finger painting without the satisfaction of a slimy ooze, what is the medium of an iphone?
Pixels I suppose, but even those seem far beneath its glimmering surface.
Luckily my back is still strong and my trusty Marimekko bag renders choice obsolete.
I prefer it all.
