Art for the Un - Artistic

Not everyone has artistic ability. At least not in the usual ways i.e. drawing, sculpting, building, etc. I'm one of those. So... I use my digital camera when I want to be creative. With today's technology, even the artistically challenged can come up with something that has an "artsy" look to it. That was my goal when I decided to create a picture to hang on the master bedroom wall. The wall is behind a door - so the picture isn't actually seen all that often, anyway.

I couldn't find what I wanted in any of the usual places (Aaron Brothers, Kohls, Downtown Sacramento stores that sell prints), so instead I bought a frame that could hold the prints that I would create. Using the Internet, I found several prints that I felt would work for my purpose. The theme is vases. I sought only those that were unusual - and colorful. I'm satisfied with the results. I used my Canon i9900 to print six 4 by 6 pictures and placed them strategically in the frame. The new frame goes well with the other pictures in the master bedroom and it adds a bit of art where previously there was none. Almost always a good thing! The picture is shown at the bottom of the blog page.
