| "Silly" day 16 |
When we started the May creative
challenge, I don't know whether Kimberly or I had any idea of where
the project, and the process, would really take us. Over the last
several months, Kimberly and I have participated in a number of these
challenges: Inktober last October, a drawing challenge in January, a
watercolor challenge in February and a storybook challenge in March.
I suppose each one of these has given each of us some insight into
our process as well as our artistic prowess. It's also very fun to
see what the other will do. In many ways, this challenge was just a
continuation of all the challenges we've been doing together since
last October. However, I felt like this one was slightly different.
This one was somehow different, I think
because of the nature of the medium. Being a photo project was one
thing. I think that photographs represent life in a very realistic
way. We also chose to use our phones as the tool for this project.
All of the photos I took during the challenge were made with and
edited with the phone. I did make a few other edits at least to a
handful of photos with Photoshop. I suppose that could be considered
cheating. The photos I tinkered with in Photoshop I felt really
deserved the second set of edits.
