Here is a great little website for when you're in need of some inspiration, 100 ideas
Here are a few: Go for a walk, draw or list the things you find on the sidewalk. Make pencil rubbings of six different surfaces. Make a map of everywhere you went in one day.
Then visit 1000 journals for loads more inspiring ideas.
As I've missed out having anything ready to sell for Chirstmas (oh well at least I have a date for our shipment to arrive from the UK finally) I'm going to aim to have something ready for Valentines! This morning I've altered a photograph of the Eiffel tower in photoshop. I used so many layers and different effects I can't actually remember what I did with it. But it will make a nice print, and maybe the background for some jewelry or valentines cards.
There was something about the work of aboriginal artist Jeannie Mills Pewrl that reminded me of a Monet when I first saw it. So carrying on from my experiments last month I've combined the two and put a painting of Monet in the background.
We took some photos last weekend for out friends of their children. Despite falling in the pond before we'd even started - a quick wardrobe change - and we got some nice shots.
I've also been busy this week hunting the net for interesting things.... could these be jellyfish? shells? I like the idea for a painting. Love it when a blog post is colour co-ordinated. :)
Im busy getting photos ready to sell on the creative monsoon website, going through the last 4years worth of photos. I came across a nice shot taken in Italy last year but I thought the bike was a little too modern, so I swapped it for an old moped from another image.
I forgot to mention we were featured in the Autumn issue of the Uks Digital Camera magazine with this cross processed photo taken in Italy earlier this year.
Prints will be for sale one I get the gallery up and running! Soon I hope.
