Want to be famous.....

[CMoore]

I am taking an Alternative Process class at our local school.
One of my assignments is to give a short (1-3 minutes) talk about a "Contemporary" Alternative Artist.
The artist does not have to be Famous or Well Known.....just somebody that is still alive and has some type of Resume/Portfolio that i can discuss in class, and i need to be able to link to at least 5 photos of their work.
It could be "anything" in the Alternative Genre
Cyan
Vandyke
Collage
Hand colored photos
Etc etc
Any of you Guys/Gals interested.?
You would need to email me a short Bio and provide me with some links to some of your work. It does not have to be 5 images of the same process.....just 5 things you have done in the Alternative Arena.
Who knows, this might be your big break...!!!!

Thank You

I forgot about this.
Kind of a Long Story. I will keep it short.
I have Little to No artistic ability. Alternative Process is not a class i was ever going to excel in.
Instead of going with One Alternative Photog/Artist, like somebody that "just" does Wet-Collodion, i gave a brief intro to our own Bob Carnie and linked to one of his shorter Youtbe videos.
Then i talked about the guy in this link. He certainly was Alternative by the standards of his day...and ours.

Nothing too Artsy-Fartsy...not exactly what the class is about, but my fellow students enjoyed it anyway.

You are selling yourself short. Everyone has an ability to be artistic.
