“I discovered windows one afternoon and after that, nothing was ever the same.” [ Anne Spollen, The Shape of Water ] ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ _____ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This one was inspired by @opheliesz’s recent Photoshop tutorial and @adventuringbeth’s #creativemay #creativemaywithbeth prompt. I haven’t had energy yet this year to pull out my tripod, and nobody is traveling very far to get to amazing places right now, BUT I know you don’t have to go far or kill yourself to create beauty, so I simply “artist dated” in Photoshop yesterday with a couple of favorite images, just to see what might happen. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I am not sure I got the proportions or the lighting right (Photoshop isn’t really my thing), but I am quite pleased with the results, and love the new setting I gave my self-portrait here. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I wonder if it will motivate me to use my tripod a bit more often, so I could set and re-set my portraits. I think it might be a fun art project in 2021. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’ll let you know if anything comes of it. For now, I feel really lucky to have inspiration and tools for making (or remaking) beautiful things. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ _____ #bykellēsauer #prompt #livemoremagic #artistdate #howtobealover #weekend #inspirationIRL #quotes #cottagecore #princesscore #chiaroscuro #italianinspired #artist #composite #cathedral #architecture #portrait #a_e_s_t_h_e_t_i_c __ (at San Francisco Bay Area) https://www.instagram.com/p/COnI1AsjxQK/?igshid=1udgsu1jvl22g
