Each photography series showcases inspiring ways viewers can master their own creativity.
Make Unexpected Street Art
Inspired by everyday thoughts, Katie Sokoler and Matt Adams attach symbolic and strategically-placed thought bubbles to Brooklyn’s architecture. As people pass their street art, they take pictures, capturing the perfectly-timed encounters.
Find the Art in Science
Caleb Charland demonstrates lessons in physics and mathematics with his mind-blowing photography. Inspired by children’s books filled with science experiments, Charland photographs everyday objects— including matches, pens, and mirrors—in ways we’ve never imagined, often using a multiple exposure technique to tell the story.
Make Kitsch Cool

Play With Toys (Yes, Toys!)
Created by DocChewbacca, Stormtroopers 365 is a photo project starring the Star Wars staples. The project began on April 3, 2009 and ended on April 2, 2010. Each day, a new picture was added to the stellar series.

For years, he took pictures of aging hands, sometimes accompanying the pieces with simple stories.
