recycled

Is it horrible that, for the first post I do, I use a photo I took over a week ago? (I think it is) Unfortunately I was at a wedding today & then babysat so I've had no time to myself!
Let's see, about me....

Right now I'm listening to Matt & Kim and eating Brown Sugar Cinammon Pop Tarts.
I adore Fred Astaire and Clara Bow.
I pretend to speak French. I'm actually quite bad.
I love holding hands and dancing even though I can't.
I try to watch a movie everyday. If you need recommendations, come to me.
My favourite film is Harold & Maude.
My favourite shows are Gilmore Girls, Freaks & Geeks, and Skins.
I...attend university, have an older sister, shoot with a Pentax, only like the pink Starburts, layer my plain bagels with plain cream cheese, wear white Hanes tee shirts, blog, am 16, live in Minnesota, and eat ice cream by the boatloads.
I also really love hot chocolate.

Hi,


I'm Jayne.

Maybe my first post shouldn't have been a photograph that I'd taken prior to this week, prior, most likely, to the conception of this idea... Oh, well. It is. There have been some slight changes to my appearance since the shutter snapped and captured this moment, but if you've been reading this blog, it's probably not driven by an interest in the physical demeanor. (that's not to say that our contributors aren't beautiful people, because they are:)) Otherwise, I'd like to say that this photograph is a fairly accurate presentation of who I am.

It's nice to meet you. :)

Magic

This is the first day of the Seven Day Art Collective. We're an ensemble of diligent, quaint, humble photographers who have an eye for magic and a talent for capturing little wafts of life as they pass by. Our magic is visual, caught in the iris of our eyes, living in the heart of glass lenses. When we open our eyes, a flood of life and creativity rush in, and in the ever returning cycle of sorcery, our minds and souls return some of the most imaginative depictions of the world one will ever know. We're only as lucky and talented as you are. But for a little while, at least, we hope you take stock in your own magic as you witness ours.

But you can't expect to start a story without knowing the cast of characters. Let us introduce ourselves over this next week: lips, and eyes, and souls, and hair, and blemishes, and all. You can learn our names, and learn a little about ourselves as we all learn more about each other.


This week's theme: Take a self-portrait of your face.
