Its been a interesting week so far. I've been working in pooler etc etc. I actually got a roll of film developed and put to cd. Its from my SLR so that was a nice treet. Part of the on-going Life Portfolio.
So now the question I have to ask and seek is how much photoshop is too much. And how much tweeking should the SLR pics go through. I guess it just has to be by my gut feeling attached is an example 1 of the pic and one of the tweeked one.
I'm definitely still trying to find my touch. I see other artists and know that them. I.e. A Desmal Piece is a Desmal Piece, or a Bridget creation is hers or Mats or the other artists I know of. But What I have to find. I feel as if I need to go on a mission, lol. But what I have to find is what is my voice. What images speak that this is me and whom I am. Its also important that I create me and not others. That's one danger I see with photoshop is that its easy to create images in the styles of others. But I think the organic nature of a click and print with not much inbetween is that is is less tempting and easier to create you in it. But than the question on broader terms must be asked. Can Originality Exist and is Original Art Possible.
that must continue another time, preferably with a few friends around a pot of loose leaf herbal tea. Which I have been enjoying lately. I have had some great black tea mixed with a little echinacea and peppermint
