Beautiful image Robin – we did have similar thoughts! I think as artists we have such a natural urge and need to create and be inspired that it makes sense to relate that to universal ideas like the sun and sky and stars – elements that are vast, beautiful and full of potential.

Thanks Laura – I’ll post to groups today! I wonder if Brooke has ever thought about starting a Promoting Passion Flickr group? It’s a great community here, it would be awesome to be able to share and support each other in that way 🙂

Here it is… simple, yet explosive, I hope. https://www.facebook.com/robincaseyphotograpicartist/photos/a.290474024491419.1073741828.289740507898104/342707462601408/?type=1&theater

In reply to Andrea Chapman. Andrea I really like your image but was shocked to see it has only been viewed 25 times. You should start posting your images in some flickr groups and share your art with the world :) Great stuff tho

Thanks for this great challenge, Brooke… I was excited when I read this the other day… then went home and thought, “But I have no ideas for this! Brooke already did it!” As usual, homework is hard sometimes… even when it is your favorite subject.

I’d been thinking and thinking on it, and finally came up with a concept yesterday, went home, and shot last night. The piece has evolved, and I think I’ am going to be very happy with this one! And to think, it wouldn’t have happened otherwise. It feels about done, but, I’ll go to bed, happy, and take another look in the morning to see if it is really done. Can’t wait to post it when it is thought.

Thanks for helping us to push the boundaries of our own ideas, Brooke. BOOM!!!!! Imagination.

This was perfect timing for me – I recently moved house and I haven’t had time to explore new locations to shoot, but I do have a blank wall!
I was also inspired by the theme of inspiration and creativity and the ways they burst forth. I wanted to portray a blank canvas being transformed into something big, amazing, beautiful and infinite. I wanted my subject to be putting her whole being into creating because that’s how I feel when I create.

Hi Brooke!
I have been doing a lot of work in front of blank walls lately, I took this one of myself, it is called fear. I love the freedom that you have with a blank wall, you can do anything you want with it =)

I created this last night. I’m doing a 28 day photo challenge I devised, a combination of themes and one light studio set ups. I needed something to combat my winterness lack of inspiration. Last night was “low light” and the theme was “The Fortune Teller.” Conscious or not, I know you are in this image somewhere. So this is me, red fabric, blank space. Thanks for always being an inspiration.
