With a twist on our usual set subject, this month the theme was “Inspired by classic art” defined as a work of a non-photographic artist of any genre (eg paint, sculpture, woodwork, fibre arts… anything except photography). The challenge was then to use some of the qualities of that piece to create an image; not necessarily a replication but with some obvious qualities that are depicted in both; whether this be style, color, story or mood. The aim was to show the viewer what was admired in the original artwork and homage to it. The artist did not need to be well known. The twist is that members had to submit a photography of the classic art that inspired them plus their own image so that we can see the homage being paid.
