I've been experimenting w/ collage using tips and such from this wonderful book by Claudine Hellmuth. Her style is quirky and I could hardly wait to try it with some of my pictures. I used a picture of my friends daughter for this one because I thought her pose easily elicited this "sweet" scene. More to come...

SPC #25
This months SPC theme, Pop Art, has been super challenging for me...but has actually given me a project to do with Photoshop. I so badly wanted to create something incredible like this or this, but since this was only my second time to ever use the program...this weeks submission is what you got instead... as Roy Lichtenstein as I'm afraid I can be...
More SPC here...

A is for...
Aloe Bloom
- Animosity towards the pigeons on my roof. Not necessarily the fowl itself, but the filth they produce...I'm so sick of sweeping the drive everyday of the Avian muck that tumbles down. I know they need a place to live, but I'd prefer they just go away. I'm also incredibly Angry at the person who continues to leave miscellaneous food bits for pigeon consumption in the middle of my street. Undoubtedly this is to lure them away from their own home and subsequently flocks of the winged vermin have infiltrated my Abode...you could say I'm grossly Annoyed.
- Abby...my name. I actually love my name, I don't know if I just got lucky and was given a name that fits my personality, or if my personality was formed because of my name. It's a little funky but not too crazy...just a little different. I was named after a woman whom my parents met at a party and they fell in love w/ the name ... then of course there's the Beatle's album Abbey Road.
- Anxious about my life path ... where will I be in a year, 5 years. Will I have children, still be working, go back to school for my Masters, will tragedy strike? I know this is Absurd that I even Agonize over something I ultimately have no control over...but on one hand I'm Afraid I will make the wrong decisions and on the flip side I'm so sick of always making the right ones... I always choose the Acceptable or Appropriate way...when sometimes I just want to be completely Asinine.
Try a little Word Play today...it's quite Addicting.
