Here are more pictures I took in Sue Benner's class at Empty Spools at Asilomar. There will be one more set tomorrow night.
Suzanne Gaensbauer used this picture of apples in a crate for her inspiration.
This shows the original and a paper collage made with pieces ripped from magazines.
Here are six abstractions from the original inspiration.
This is Suzanne's first project with the picture that Sue gave her on the right and her abstraction on the left.
LaDonna DeCamillo abstracted these from her inspiration image from home.
Carroll Hirsch received the picture at top center from Sue and created the abstraction at top right. Her other abstractions are from her inspiration photo at middle right.
Mea Lee worked from the magazine picture at top left to create the abstract on the bottom. She started her smaller work with the very faint picture at top right which is a cabin in Tahoe.
She created these three abstractions of the cabin, each more abstract.
Margie Bushaw worked from her inspiration photo at top left. On the bottom right is one she called "Abstraction Playtime", made from scraps.
At top left is the picture she received from Sue and the abstraction at bottom right.
Jean Impey worked from the picture at left to create this great abstraction on the right.
Here is Jean's board with the inspiration photos at left and the abstractions on the right.
A little closer up on two of Jean's pieces.
Nancy Bourns' board - on the left side are the abstraction from Sue's photo with the actual photo below it. Next to her name is the inspiration photo she brought from home and then the six smaller pieces she created from fabric.
Here are two larger abstracts that Nancy Bourns brought from home to share.

I think using a photo or picture to abstract may be harder than to just use one's imagination without a one! However, Sue certainly STRETCHED her students imaginations! At least she did stretch this viewers!
