"It is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation." - Herman Melville
Even when my students are looking at a photograph, I encourage them to put their own spin on it or think about how they can make it better. There's a time to imitate when learning and then there's a time to determine what your own style is and do your thing. I'm so proud of my students for exploring their imagination and creativity to produce beautiful works of art!
