Well forgive me that i'm new to this and i'm not really sure how things work, so hey i'm starting to learn. I'm fairly computer illiterate, so you may have to bare with me! Apologies. I did make a lovely Elephant last night. Well, painted her. She's now called Miriam and she's sat on the windowsill in my bedroom watching over all my possesions, she's like a guard elephant :) I shall put a tea light in her later, take some pictures and post them up here for you to see. I also need to do a photoshoot with my grandma and grandpa for my Art Academy work folder. I am everso excited. I love taking pictures of my grandma, she's everso beautiful, she's 72 and she's still the most beautiful woman in the world, to both me and my grandpa :).. I have to start thinking of "FASHION IDEAS" for my photography exam. I was trawling through images on the internet and i have come accross this gem. Like it? I like the idea of the 3 images being as one, the colour pallette and the composition. Inspiration? Yes thanks.
Well, this is Miriam, in the normal state of elephantness :) I put a tea light inside her and sat her back on my window, the lights were on when i took this one above though.
This one is with the lights out, she looks much better with a candle in and the lights out. I am rather chuffed with the outcome :) She was a grotty terracotta colour before, i found her in the bargain bucket at Wilko's for 50p and she looked like she needed some love - so love i gave her! Painted her, newspapered her and jewlled her, now she looks everso lovely and like she actually belongs to someone! Welcome to the family Miriam :)
