Looking at familiar things in a new and different way is a positive exercise, Carlysue. I tried it once by posting a tilted image of white metal chairs stacked up on an outdoor restaurant patio. The reactions I received were very interesting. I like all of these but saw a message in number three. ‘Chaos triumphs over order’.

I like 'em, carlysue. #3 is sort of Carne Griffiths-esque, but is purely your own.

Why?
Because.
I prefer for my posts to not get monotonous.
I'd prefer someone paused and looked because it was different, like it or not.
I prefer to be creative.
Because it was a learning adventure.
Because I wondered what someone else might think.
Or, just because.
And I do appreciate that you looked and asked. Thanks.

Art or photography? I like it very much.
thank you for looking, shagbat, and I appreciate that you liked it!
It is photography as I took the photos of the three ladies and I did the splatter paintings and took photographs of those as well. l think the art comes into it when you imagine "what if" and then try to make it happen and you create something that is different than the originals.
I had fun creating these and I am pleased you enjoyed.

Experimenting is,always fun. I particularly like the first one
I must agree, NJFrank. I love fun, I hate tedium. And I hate being boring! I'm so pleased you liked the first one. I liked the drama and high contrast of the final result of that. I forgot to identify the images with their names. #1 is my niece, Sophia.
Thank you for looking and letting me know.

I remember that image, John. The way you made all of those chair backs appear to be one glorious tangle! I loved your ability to see "beyond the mash" of chairs. And then you tilted the image and gave it a whole different look. Causing one to pause and take a second look is a triumph.
I had a good time creating these, but not knowing how they would be received made me a little tentative. Yet, I do not want to be boring. I'd rather be "different" than a bore. Thank you, John, for checking this out.

THAT is a great complement to me, Cany143! I did not know of this artist and had no idea of his work so just checked it out! I love his creativity.
Like all art, its not going to be liked by all people; but that's what makes us all appreciate what's different. I am so pleased you enjoyed these and let me know and clued me into Carne Griffiths' work.
