SUSAN TUTTLE INSPIRATION

August 16, 2013

Who is Susan Tuttle, you ask? She's a digital SLR photographer, iPhoneographer, digital artist and author. You can see a variety of her art here!  Primarily a photographer, I love her art...especially the way she creates pieces with her photos and  iPhone apps!! She's the artist to inspire participants this week at Flicker's online art group, DIGITALMANIA. I wanted to show you just how inspired I am by her ph0tography... I manipulated some photos in photoshop, reminiscent of her style...

 

 

 

By playing with colors, lighting, shading and filters as well as using a combination of  your everyday photos (taken with iphone, ipad or regular camera,)  you can make wonderful pieces of art!! I'm working on that...

One more challenge blog piece for THINK MONDAY-THINK ATC whose theme had to do with "legs..." a fun piece!!

 

 

Enjoy your weekend. Hope to see you sometime next week!

Thanks for stopping by...

 

Hugs,

A LITTLE MORE ART...

August 13, 2013

 

I'm so pleased to be getting back into creating art...missed it when I didn't have the time or the tools!

The first piece is for SUNDAY POSTCARD ART, who declared  their theme to be "baking." For some reason, my mind flashed back to the 50's housewife and Good Housekeeping Magazine... I even put a recipe on the refrigerator! 

The next piece is for COLLAGE OBSESSION's challenge blog. Their theme is "kings or queens." Since I have a  fascination with  gypsies, my queen is Queen of the Gypsies...

THINK MONDAY- THINK ATC (TMTA) requested a piece about friendship. Once again, I was able to use a photo I took in Ethiopia of two young girls standing together looking at a corral of cows.

Finally, for a FLICKER group that's  called DIGITALMANIA, a piece inspired by the art of one Susan Tuttle. You can see her work here... Below is mine;

and another piece, this  inspired by Pam Carriker- her art is here! Below is mine...

Thanks for stopping by. Hope you enjoy the rest of your week... I'm off to create more art, work out and perhaps, do some reading. Aaah, the life of a retired woman!!  :)

Hugs,
