How to be creative? REMIX and re-create and re-articulate photos you’ve already made in the past, and re-make it anew!
Why I like iPad and Procreate
First of all, you don’t gotta use an iPad or Procreate. You can just use your laptop and any image-processing or editing software. Photoshop is fine, or any open-source solution as well (GIMP).

There ain’t no rules, right or wrong!

Ideas:
- Add extreme contrast to your photos via the CURVE tool.
- Add overlays with different colors, and make “Multiply” your blending mode.
- Inverse your photos
As you are experimenting, keep exporting your photos as JPEG images, and then share them to your own website and blog!
