I posted this pic here before. This is it with a texture layer that is my own silkscreen/painting - a part of it scanned, croppped, tweeked in Photoshop... the text is a quote about my dad who died two years ago....can you see his face in the pathway between the 2 benches?

The next assignment in digital class will be to "Illustrate a Poem" - your images will have TEXT in them - all or part of the poem. Let's try to use your own poems. You can write the poem 1st or have the photo inspire the poem.

Darkroom students - we may have time to do this too...if not you can try it with x-tra time you have if you finish other assignments - talk to me about your idea and I can give you some techniques to do this in the darkroom. This image is a "montage". We will be doing an assignment called "Double Exposure", where we play with montaging different photos together as one...

A thanks to Grayson for helping me come up with this good idea for a class project!
