The Fab Imitates Art photo challenge
Jump to: Newest in thread
I've long described the photos my hotlistees photo uploads as beautiful works of art, but how about this weekend we all attempt to recreate famous works of art (paintings or sculpture) in our photos? 
There are so many posing possibilities, from Klimt's kiss or Munch's scream, to Rodin's thinker, or maybe you have a pearl earring or an enigmatic smile you can utilise....
Who's up for celebrating their artistic side this weekend? |

"I’m as artistic as morph
Stick on a straw hat and I bet you could give us a recognisable Van Gogh self-portrait! 
No chopping off ears though! "
Ermmm no... It's just for fun. No suffering for this art folks  |

"Fabulous idea op! We shall get our thinking caps on! "
May I borrow one when you're done? I was so enthused by the concept of this challenge that I didn't give any thought to which piece of art I'm going to imitate   |

"I have done this before, recreating one of William Blake’s paintings as a photograph. It was many years ago and didn’t come out very well. But it was fun to try. "
I've a feeling I've bitten off more than I can chew with this one... But as you say... It'll be fun trying! |

"I have a feeling that weeping woman by Picasso might not come off too well...
Perhaps steer clear of abstract or cubism. I'll have a ponder "
Oooo... I could put my face paints left over from Halloween to use for that one...!! Think you've just inspired me |

"Do I need to do a new one or can I use this?
Auguste Rodin’s, The Thinker - I like it good sir
I was going to adopt the very same, but with a twist, namely with me siting on the toilet.....  "
Now you need to think of another you can do on the toilet |

"I dont know arts im an estate kid not a posh boy
Grew up in a house where we had no central heating so the windows froze on the inside, and I love art"
Your roots don't determine who you can grow into.
Frida.. my best memory of winter is seeing frost on our windows. The intricacy of design.. x |

No they do not, this apple fell far from the tree. My father didn't even want me get an education.
I absolutely adore the patterns frost gives on windows too |

"Are you only wanting to see simulated artwork from specific time periods?
"
Not at all... You can recreate from any period, as long as the work isn't too obscure. It's just more fun if people can recognise the work being imitated easily |

I just would've put up stuff I've made for Burning Man or Coachella festivals butt it's not recognizable or imitated art. |
