Colour me Katie
If you have a few minutes this weekend and want to be inspired then you should watch this. Katie Sokoler AKA Color Me Katie is a specialist at working with strangers. Inspired by a college project in which the then shy Katie was forced to photograph 100 strangers in 5 hours, she has since eschewed using models to stage shoots, preferring instead to promote human interaction through her work and capture the results of humans in their natural habitat when mixed with fantasy or fun. In both her recent projects, the Brooklyn Thought Bubble Project and the Shadow Project, Katie stages creative traps and lies in wait to capture special moments on camera. We follow her through her process and ask why she makes interaction her art.

Make Something New Everyday
Brock Davis is making something cool every day for 2009. Check out the rest of his super fun creations here
This reminds me of my time when I was in Los Angeles during New Years a few years back. I made a resolution for the month of January where I did something I had never done before for 31 days straight. It wasn't anything over the top but they ended up being life changing. It was mainly little things including eating something I had never tried before, using a sun bed for the first (& only) time, exploring a new art gallery. Each day I felt more and more exhillerated and a little bit braver to try something new. Near the end of my little experiement I walked down a red carpet and sat in front of Prince (the rock star)! I swear this only happened because I was living under the motto of doing something new each day. Give it a go and let me know how you go.

Picasso
Picasso never dates! I was watching British talent show X-Factor (yes I watch it) on the television and one of the commercials had people making all these wonderful shapes with a light. I knew I had seen this before and Bam guess what? I found all these wonderful pictures on the LIFE website. I think we should all get a torch and do a little Picasso in our own homes. I would love to see your results
