I never come to the Forum... but today this is the SECOND TIME. When we enter TD we see it is good for the creative aspect of our brain as Sudoku is good for the logical aspect.
Thinking of that, I'm so happy to see other people's pics in the gallery, some of them so ARTISTIC with so few and difficult elements. But art could be only one of the sides, creativity even if it is not so artistic is also VERY IMPORTANT. For example the picture of LADY O of 2 April called "I'm just really glad to see you." It uses incredibly simple elements in a very new and creative way. Maybe it was overlooked by most of you unintentionally. Another is a snail by Shipcity( I hope I remember his name well) some days ago...very simple.
ART IS BEAUTY.
SIMPLICITY HAS ANOTHER KIND OF BEAUTY.

I totally agree with you, polenta. I did see the snail ... it's delightful in its simplicity. I'm still looking for Lady O's ... I will find it, though.

You are so right polenta, some of my favorite pictures are the ones that have only a few elements in them. Sometimes it take more creativity to use less. (However I do love some of the incredibly complex one's too, Luna, kmkagle and countless others have really beautiful work that are very full).

I *loved* the snail a few days ago, the way the swirl pattern of the shell was created by layering the piece just right in different sizes. Simple and so beautiful! Another one that really caught my attention (sorry, I can't remember who made it..maybe matthew?) was in the toys and game showcase...the woods background and then just two pieces for kites and a few pieces for strings. Probably a 5 minute job and an incredible result!

Ok, it was not matthew! I just went and found it...if I counted right, it's a background and 19 pieces. Just 19!!
