I even had the forethought to check what the theme would be for Kim Klassen's Texture Tuesday link-up...rather than discovering the theme just as I write my post and then have to figure out if there is some way to shoehorn the image I have to fit the parameters...it doesn't always work out!
So when I checked and read that the theme would be "yellow", my mind started racing...
Given that its spring and there are plenty of blooms...buttercups, tulips, daisies or dandelions seemed to be obvious yellow candidates...but I thought...surely there are other yellow subjects to consider...it became my challenge...with one simple set-up, how many different yellow compositions could I create...using just what I could find in the house...
I went to work and concocted ten different vignettes...
Some were more whimsical than others...
others more arty...
and some were just everyday practical...
I didn't spend tons of time on photo editing...all of the above images were edited with kk texture dollard or urban...both textures have a yellow tone to bring out the colors and lighten the image since getting inspired at 3 in the afternoon is not the most conducive natural light situation. Instead of focusing on photo editing, I wanted to take the time to consider what I could compose that would break conventional ideas of yellow...
It turned into a fun exercise...even got the Southern Man searching around for different types of yellow things...

and of course in the end...I just had to include a few buttercups...
