TOPIC: learning from a failure

After many many hours of work on an experimental piece last month, I finally decided it was, overall, not that great. However, I played with photos of it and stumbled upon numerous detail shots that are definitely interesting; and informative as to what a "good" composition can be. This one photo here is an example of how "going to the edges" is often much more dynamic and engaging than traditional compositions.
This detail shot is one little section of the maligned painting/collage on plexiglass, with fabric attached to the back side.
