It always feels saying goodbye to an old friend.

The results from GDSP10 were quite overwhelming. I dealt with this by drawing some of them.

This is drawn from adasanserre’s Guest Directed Self Portrait number 10 submission. You can see the other submissions here.

Submissions for GDSP10
So I made a prompt for the Guest Directed Self Portrait project and the submissions have been overwhelming and very emotional to read about and see.
“Take a picture of yourself with a thing”.
I’m going to post them here with a roll over link to the original post so you an find out more about the artists and their stories about the things they have photographed.
I’ll add to the gallery as more come through.
An extra big thanks to Molly Peck for setting the whole thing up.

GDSP #10 instruction
These are my instructions for the Guest Directed Self-Portait project number Ten:
Take a picture of yourself with an important thing.
You could tell us what the thing is, and why it is important to you.
You could tell us how it smells, feels, tastes, sounds, if these are applicable.

Guest Directed Self-Portrait #04

“GDSP #4 is to consist of your reflection. your image can be reflected from whatever you wish: a mirror, puddle, glass, etc. when taking the photo, look at yourself in your reflection, not at the lens. if possible, do not let the camera be seen in the reflection. this photo can be taken any time of day and your environment can be whatever suits you. the picture can be of either your face or your body, whatever you think best works with the photo and the reflective piece. be creative and surprise me.”
