Mobile Photography & Art – Tickle Your Fancy #61

08/12/2018 by Joanne Carter

Welcome back to our sixty first post in our Tickle Your Fancy section. ‘Tickle Your Fancy’ includes a round-up of between seven to eight links to articles from around TheAppWhisperer over the past few week, that you may by chance have missed. Please note, I’ve been a little unwell this week, so have not published as much as I wanted to.

Just to explain the title for this section Tickle Your Fancy is an English idiom and essentially means that something appeals to you and perhaps stimulates your imagination in an enthusiastic way, we felt it would make a great title for this new section of the site.

Mobile Photography – Portrait of an Artist – Twenty Eighth Video Showcase

06/12/201806/12/2018 by Ile Mont

We are delighted to present our 28th Portrait of an Artist Video Showcase. Ile Mont our highly talented Editor for our Portrait of an Artist Column has curated the another astonishing showcase. Each image is related to the previous and the ensuing, the personal associations that underpin their selection remain mysterious. Entirely intentional, this is a bold and atypical showcase, wholly satisfying, signalling a shift away from poetic documentary and towards conceptualism. Enjoy! (Foreword by Joanne Carter)

Full Day Of iPhoneography Workshops For $99

27/03/201727/03/2017 by Joanne Carter

Join three experienced and frequently exhibited iPhoneography teachers at the Los Angeles Festival of Photography on April 22, 2017 for a full day of workshops for just $99! All three were featured in the book The Art of iPhone Photography from Rocky Nook Books (Bob and Nicki were the co-authors, and David Ingraham was another contributor):

Nicki Fitz-Gerald: Life in Layers – Creative iPhone Artistry: Join UK photo artist Nicki as she walks us through her world, pushing the limits of how we see through the lens of an iPhone; literally painting with light, creating impressionist photo paintings, the results of which are often cut up and combined with photos of marks, patterns, textures, shapes and text (all captured on the iPhone) to create her more abstract and expressive collage works.
David Ingraham: The iPhone Darkroom: Join photographer David Ingraham as he demonstrates how to apply simple-yet-effective darkroom techniques using only a handful of iPhone apps to achieve tonally-rich, tactile, ready-to-print black-and-white images, all from the palm of your hand.
Bob Weil: Creating Conceptual Art on Mobile Devices: Join Bob for a deep dive into one man’s creative process, and discover some of the tools and techniques you’ll need to harness your own creative muse and produce work that represents your own personal view and aesthetic vision.

We are delighted to publish our interview with Nicki Fitz-Gerald of iPhoneographyCentral regarding her brand new mobile art course ‘Adventures in Creative Mobile Artistry‘. It is a course that I have taken time to indulge with and each lesson I have found to be thoroughly exhilarating. I also wanted to find out a few more details regarding the inspiration, motivation and creativity of this course by asking Fitz-Gerald a few intriguing questions. I hope you all enjoy this as much as I do.

If you would like to try this course for yourself which is currently sporting a 50% discount you can download it here.

Streets Ahead – Challenge 7 – Steal a Moment

11/11/201407/11/2014 by Cara Gallardo Weil and Gina Costa

Welcome to the showcase for our seventh challenge ‘Steal a Moment’. The objective of these challenges is to help us collectively practice and perhaps learn some new techniques. Each challenge will be based either on a shooting technique or perhaps a theme. We announced this challenge within our Streets Ahead Facebook group and it features fabulous mobile photography taken on the street using frames such as windows and doorways to create a ‘frame within a frame’.

We would like Streets Ahead to be and interactive group, and for members to try to participate in the challenges.

If you are a woman street photographer, please join our growing community (see links below).

With many congratulations to Armineh Hovanesian, Dani Salvadori, Gina Costa, Giulia Baita, Lee Atwell, Christine Mignon, Cara Gallardo Weil, Elaine Taylor, Grace Brignolle, Louise Whiting, Nicki Fitz-Gerald, Stef LePape, Basak Aytek and Vivi Hanson Sacredote for being featured this time.
