Zoom into a flower with just the stamens, or zoom into a glass vase with just its reflections, maybe take a photo of just clouds only, or the ripples in a pool, perhaps in black and white, or sepia.

In other words, take photos in a way you have not tried before nor have seen done before.      BE   Different!

With a selection of your own,  unique photos to use as reference material you’ll find it much easier to begin to paint bolder, freer, and in a distinctive voice that expresses what you want to convey.

A great way to develop your artistic creativity

is to take photos with the “specific intent” of Originality.

Use  your photos,  as  Springboards,  into creativity.
