ISO 800 35mm f/2.8 1/60 secs Day 13 “Bug” #365PhotoBlog
We made a trip to the pet store today for this capture.
Painting with apples, potatoes and paint brushes. It yields some interesting results let me tell you. What you need: Canvas (or paper), piece of firm food you can cut into shapes (we used potatoes & apples), paint brushes and paint!
We made flowers.
Small potato cut in half made the perfect pistil (or center of the flower). Long vertical cuts sliced thin made beautiful flower petals. We used a paint brush make a long stem. The extra long thin slices made pretty flower petals.
Tips:
Potatoes work better then apples.
You don’t need a lot of paint. Just have a thin layer of paint otherwise it will clump.
I believe in bucket-filling (a little twist on the bucket list). I want a platform to share my artform(s) that already fill my bucket. I have the degree(s). I survived the young child rearing years. I've landed the leadership dream job. It's time to fill my bucket. Focus on what lights my fire. Rebranding this blog (yet again) to meet me where I am at in this journey called life. I will share my creative writing. I will share my photography. I will share my thoughts on this crazy journey we call life. I like to keep it real. I refuse to live up to "the image". I don't use filters. What you see (read) is what you get. I hope you enjoy the read and I will try to balance what I share in a meaningful way. Ultimately, I keep this blog for me. You (my imagined audience) are an awesome bonus!
