About Me:

After failing to tell the story of my life one picture a day I've decided to give this project another go in 2009.

Now, the same idea is of course out, but what else is there left for me to do? Why, PHOTOMANIPULATIONS of course.

And that's what I want to try this year. I'm going to edit the hell out of stuff and see how long I can keep this up without stopping or getting completely and utterly redundant.
BLANK. Well, I'll be needing this for something else shortly, but of course it's also a SYMBOL FOR A NEW START. You know, clean slate and all. Gosh, that's deep.

It looks pretty rushed, so boo for that, but it's also got something bleached or at least washed out about it and I like that a lot.

I've been meaning to go on a Silent Hill manipulation trip for a while now and this is the first attempt I've made at creating a vaguely Otherworldly Mouette. It's still pretty harmless though and I'm hoping to create or re-create something more freaky in the future.

Hmyes, that's essentially waking up in the morning. Evenings look saner again and brain, please stop being so liquid.

I hate to break it to myself, but today's experiment failed.
-> I thought about yesterday's nose and wanted to re-create the painted feeling. The eyes, nose and mouth are actually re-drawn by hand.
-> I didn't like the eyes, so I wanted to create a red hat contrast and a few edges to make up for it.
-> Long story short, it didn't help.
Maybe sometime next week I'll see if I can get an interesting scheme out of that edge effect.

Yeah, something like this. It's simple, it's shit, but I love it. I think it's... version 20 of today's manipulation with neither of the 20 having anything in common? Yeah, something like that. I've got a couple ideas for further projects now though.

FACE GOES ON, FACE GOES OFF! :DD

...I love the idea, but I think the picture can definitely be improved. I'll work on that this year, plus I absolutely need to try a robot version sometime.

Today my shoulder hurt and I didn't want to do a manip at all. I'm tired, I'm bleh and I'm pretty sure this thing captures that well.

I wonder what happened to my lip though, I might have to make a note of that for a more enthusiastic day.

Cold colour scheme! Psychodelic-esque! Yay!
