Hi everyone!
Here is a new challenge that I imposed upon myself. I really wanted to push my Photoshop limits. This is my version of the Madhatter. It’s a bit mad, but then again, that is the point. I am really enjoying the thought process of creating. I really feel that we get so caught up in work and in just trying to make every hour of the day productive, that we forget and do not dedicate time to ourselves whatsoever. I believe I spent about three days at a time for two weeks tweaking and playing with this piece. There were several times in which I wanted to give up. I don’t know if it’s art, I don’t know if it is technically sound, but what I do know is that I did best. I will continue to do my best. They may not all be gems; however, I do feel that they are a necessary part of the creative process. At this point in time, I have the opportunity to take a step back and dig in. Rather than work for a pretty penny, I have the chance to look within and invest in myself. I have the chance to explore and learn. I am going to take advantage of it. On a side note, much to my dismay, the hair is all mine! I was making the best out of a bad perm. All I wanted was a bit of volume and some soft curls. But nooooooooo, that’s too much to ask for. So, enjoy my new hair-do! Can you say mousse!
Till next time,
Aimee Michelle
