“So often, you are so close to who you want to be, you don’t even realize it. You feel like it’s so far away and it is right there in front of you.” —Sue Bryce
I’ve been taking a lot of online photography workshops lately and am LOVING it. The one I’m currently on is about experimental portraiture by Sue Bryce and Lara Jade, and something that Sue said in an episode I recently watched has been on my mind for a few days now. She said that she had been talking with her friends about their values and her friends were surprised that photography didn’t make it onto her list until #7. Her explanation for this is that, for the style of photography that she does, the importance is in the feeling of beauty and power that she is able to give her clients by seeing a photograph of themselves that was taken once she breaks through all of their insecurities and nervousness. That’s not the type of photography I usually do, but I love and respect it tremendously. The world needs more of it.
But that begs the question: What DO I do then? What are my values? Why are those things important? How do they connect to each other?
I don’t have direct answers to all of those questions yet. But it’s a great something to sit on and daydream about. Here are some thoughts towards my values:
1—Meaningful relationships. Several months ago, doing a monthly goal setting challenge from my friend and spiritual life coach, Ivy Rose Latchford, I realized that this is one of the most important things to me in life. There is SO much in this world, but none of it matters if we don’t have meaningful relationships. With ourselves, with our friends, our families, our homes. With nature. With the universe.
2—Catharsis. I think this is what we all look for every day, and it’s what I strive to offer through all of my artwork. But also not only through my artwork, but through every word I speak, every action, for myself if not also for others. We must find it in the smallest of details. The first sip of your latte in the morning. The sun suddenly breaking through the clouds. I use specifically luxurious pens when I write in my journal because they make me feel like what I’m saying is that much more meaningful.
3—Artistic expression. This falls heavily into the catharsis category, but even for the most joyous, innocent person, I think it’s important to make art. Art is the truest pieces of our own selves that we can put out into the world and leave behind. Above our children, who are their own beings. Above photographs of important moments in our lives, because we have lived so many more days. Above all else. The art we create is the window into our souls for whoever is already out there looking for someone who understands and whomever we leave behind in this world.

I guess curb appeal is important when you're selling a jeep too. Or maybe the owner is just a gardener. This jeep was a quarter mile away from our motel so I got to enjoy it several times over the weekend.
Value items to complete the bikes: retro grips and handlebar bag. Bag attaches at 3 points; two straps on h-bar and a strap around the head tube. Rear and bottom panels are reinforced with rigid plastic inserts. I'm happy to recommend Bauer Cycle Supply in Minneapolis. They've got the bags. Their ebay store is: "The-Bicycle-Parts-Store".

I saw value finders in a quilt store years ago but didn't really understand how they worked. Nevertheless, I went to an art store and found the red and green acetate and made a crude one of my own...but only out of the red paper - because I didn't know why I needed both.
My Colombian quilt group - wonderful traditional quilters - are always auditioning fabrics when we meet - and getting the opinions of the other ladies. Last week I told them about value finders and then decided to come home to make them one.
I made them each one using the red paper and then googled ' value finder' to make sure I was calling it the right thing.
Well...little did I know that you need both! The red can't see reds and the green can't see greens.
So, I got busy and made the green value finders and attached them with a loop.
This tool helps with ANY art media be it fabric, paint, markers, paper... where-ever you use color.
Great value specials at only AUD5, including combination crispy fried noodles at AUD5 per head, and crab noodles for AUD60.

We often work hard to reproduce reality perfectly—but we’re not bound to do so. There’s value to bending reality if it lends shades of emotion to a photograph...

There is one thing that sets photography apart from all other art forms. And that’s the reality of it. It’s one of those inescapable truths about photography, really. Every time we press the shutter button, we capture a small slice of reality. This just isn’t true of mediums like paints or sculpture. Sure, we might look at a real scene or a photograph of a scene in order to create a painting, but ultimately, we interpret what we see with each brushstroke, so there is always some separation from reality. Not so with the camera. The camera records exactly what it sees.
And because of this, there is a tendency among photographers to expand on this sense of reality. It’s something that happens especially among newer photographers, but even those who have been at it for years and years will do this. We very often work extremely hard to reproduce a scene exactly true to life. That means bringing every element into sharp focus, rendering colors just as we see them with our eyes, and getting the lighting perfect so that it looks no different from how we behold it.
Of course, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with this kind of ultra-realistic photography. But I think it’s important to remember that we’re not bound to realism. In fact, realism can be something of a trap that we get stuck in with this need to reproduce exactly what we see. Sometimes, though, accuracy may not be the best way to create a photograph.
To my mind, there are merits to using color and light in ways that aren’t necessarily accurate. It’s all about the shades of emotion that you want to imbue in the photograph. It’s necessary, I think, to sometimes separate from the reality of an image if the reality isn’t necessarily what gets the most meaning across.
Think about it this way. We go to great lengths to prevent overexposure or underexposure. But truthfully, when it’s used well? Overexposure can make a photograph look ethereal or heavenly—and that’s a useful tool when we want to make a photograph feel magical or somehow uplifting. Underexposure works similarly but in reverse. An underexposed image can be moody, grim, maybe even a bit sad, haunting or scary. It’s just another tool in your toolbox, something that you can use to get those feelings across if you need to.
The same is true of colors. There is, in fact, a whole branch of psychology devoted to color theory because people react similarly to different colors. Blue makes people feel relaxed, for example, while red can indicate danger or caution. You can wield these emotional shades within your images in any number of ways. Adjust the tint or white balance to something that while not necessarily accurate, gets the feeling that you intend across. Cool tints for photographs that are supposed to seem distant or lonesome, warm tints when you want to evoke a sense of reminiscence or the comfortable feeling of a beautiful summer afternoon.
The reality in photographs can be a wonderful thing—but there is no law that says we must abide by it. Don’t hesitate to veer into the surreal if that’s what brings to life all the shades of emotion that you want to express.
