Photo 2 is of 4 faces drawn by me and some of my adult workshop participants this week in a creative workshop in #Blackpool. The #64MillionArtists #TheJanuaryChallenge task was to give an everyday object a face. Here, we gave a face to an armchair (Armchair Gran), a water drip (Avatar Mermaid), a lion puppet (Alfred the Lion) and a broken Christmas light. We also gave them new year resolutions. My favourite was 'Roar More!'. I may do so. #play #faces #photographymaster
