your imagination

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?

Stick on a straw hat and I bet you could give us a recognisable Van Gogh self-portrait!

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.

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.
