orange still life w/ texture layer

I remembered how to post BIG! I shot this in my studio and the texture layer is a silkscreen I did from my photos of Isobel and my dad that I had added paint to and scanned...

I think in Advanced Photo, after we are done with "Self Portraits" and "The Other", we will end the year with "Landscapes" and texture ...not that you can't play with t
exture a lot with all of our assignments....

Here is some pics I found of Francesca Woodman's that are lovely. I am thrilled to see her face in this one, which she does not typically show...

Let's get posting...


oh me, oh my...Advanced Photo - we have got to get posting...let's do it with your answers to finding an inspiring "Self Portrait" artist to research and posting a new digital pic you have taken recently that you would like some feedback on...ok- let's do it!
this is Isobel and Sasha pic for our holiday card - the only image where both of them were not crying or walking off the backdrop!

This is what I would shoot for "PUZZLE COMPOSITE"

These pics were taken outide balcony of my mom-mom's apt in center city Philly. This would be the perfect spot for me to shoot Hockney style in b+w + re-composite the prints together...
I will do one day soon!

Posting a pic just to say I did...


This next week we are doing the class pics at CPFA...after that Advanced Photo and I will get it together with this blog and post at least one new pic every week! Everyone will view each other's work and give feedback to at least one photo they see. I will give feedback on the images that I think we should print in class!

To blog or not to blog...


...that is the question....

Hello Everyone - Is anyone there? We have to decide if we should use the blog as integral part of class or not this year! This blog is a fun, creative way to share our pictures just because we want to or for assignments we can have in class. I LOVE it because you can post whenever you want AND you can nicely attach writing to accompany your photos. I don't love it because it is another form of technology that I have to "contend" with. What does anyone else think? Let's discuss it in class - I esp. think Advanced Photo should do some stuff with the blog this year...now I just have to remember all the tricks I learned on here since it's been a while! Nonetheless, I am looking forward to a great CPFA school year!
