Am I Blue?



Okay, so this is my response to a "poetic license" project I have given myself to try to get my creative juices flowing again. I have written various words on slips of paper that I have placed in a glass bowl, and I will draw one word and create photos that represent my interpretation of said word. This week's word was "blue." I came up with this idea because I was thinking about the labels we give things and how we respond to the world around us when we are suddenly faced with things that don't seem to conform to those labels.

Let me know what you think about this idea -- especially if you decide to try it yourself!

Tina, an outstanding idea to pose words to images. Words attempt to define images, and being a photographer, you know that sometimes words won't do.
