Anything
Goes!
*
A
typical activity of the forum
is to offer interesting
exercises where members may create
digital, photo or art illustrations, which
are then shared onlist for critique and comment.
Then there are those projects
which defy definition where
challenges, inspiration and
experimentation
entwine, and our wildest
creations come true...it goes
without saying, "anything goes".
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BlobArt
-
An exercise
challenge of creating an image
from poured paint or a "blob",
as each artist
interprets the same blob to
expose what for them, is
lurking
inside
...and the charm of BlobArt.

Dreesen.
Camera
Toss
-
In this
unusual exercise, the movement
of a random camera toss created
the images
used in these haiga. We all had
our own style, from a flip of
the wrist, to a slow sway,
to
the 'camera as pendulum'.
Astronomical Haiga
-
An
interesting challenge, with Jim
Swift posting the Astronomy
Picture of the Day from
the NASA
Web site.
Using the
image of the
birthday card for the 10th
anniversary of the SOHO
(the
SOlar and Heliospheric
Observatory)
satellite everyone created
their own unique haiga
Beautiful
images evolved by using a
variety of techniques
incorporating digital
manipulation.
Da
Eye
-
An
unexpected flash from a cell
phone camera at close range
resulted in this close-up
photo of "Da Eye". Each artist
uses it as the basis for their
own unique 'eye-riginal' image.
PUSH
and PULL -
An
experiment with different color
combinations and how they affect the
composition.
With 'push
and pull', shapes and colors
interact to create not only the
feeling of space,
but of
movement as well.
MYoats
-
The special feature of this program is its
ability to handle radial and reflective symmetry.
Your drawings are instantly turned into
kaleidoscopes, and you can play with the number of sides.
The site also has the capaability to save your
images as high quality png's, from which format it's
easy to open the file for post-processing
in your photo editor.
