Glee by JTomblinson
What do you mean, no jumping on the couch?? Taken at a photo shoot in November 2006. We were trying to get some nice holiday portraits as a gift for our playgroup sitter. We eventually did, but the ones like this are probably more fun. ;) Created for the “Children: the power of raw emotions” black and white photography challenge, 10/08. Entered for the “Jump and Jive” challenge, Two Word Challenge group, April 2009. Featured in the Two Word Challenge group, May 2009. Thanks, y’all! :D

The Past in a Present Frame by Mui-Ling Teh
How I wish I could go back to unstressful days :P Well the matters stressing me out lately I cannot resolve during the weekends so I decided to finish this up. This playground is located in my neighborhood. It has changed a lot over the years. I was maybe a year old in the picture so the frame, depicting the playground today, shows how much it changed about 21 years later: There are more trees planted, the slide has changed, and the swings have been moved (if you look closely at the top right you can see the top of the swings in my past photo disappering. And here is a poem written by Dawnsky2 for this piece: It seems like only yesterday, / when I walked the park as a child. / Running carefree, / innocence and youthfulness. / Oh, how life speeds past you. / I sit on the bench that was once, not there, / if I remember, / only bushes laden with lilac. / The old climbing frame has gone, / replaced by color and new. / The swings are better now, / than then. / I don’t remember all this greenness, / with time, there’s so much more green now, / than then. / I gaze passed the play area / to the small field. / A girl with long dark hair plays / with a brightly colored ball. / She throws it to another, / she laughs, / she runs and jumps. / Her father waits for her play, / he sits nearby smiling at his child. / The girl stops and stands still, / she turns to look at me. / her eyes are innocent / of a life not yet fully lived. / I know this child, / this child is me, / she is young and happy. / Oh, how life speeds past you. / I am old, / but I’m happy.

About This Group
Two word challenge is open to everyone, no matter what form your art takes; photography, painting/drawing, writing and digital art are all welcome. Every Monday an announcement will be placed in the group forum containing two unrelated words. Group members are free to interpret these word and create a piece of art which reflects and sums up these two words (this is not as easy as it sounds!) Each challenge is open to submissions for six week after the announcement and each artist may submit up to three works for each challenge. Here I would encourage people to experiment and step outside their comfort zone, for example, painters could submit one painting and one piece of writing (or stick to paintings if you so choose.) Please include the name of the group and the two words in your tags, please don’t title your work with the two words or we will all have art with the same name.
Group members are encouraged to email me with their two word suggestions. Depending on the amount of suggestions I cannot guarantee that all will be used, each member please do not send more than one suggesstion per week. All suggestions will be kept for future challenges and the name of the group member plus a link to their profile will be included in the announcement. If no suggestions are made then I will announce two words I have chosen, so please get in touch.
My hope for this group is that it will challenge all of us to produce work that we would not otherwise have thought of, and experiment with work we may not have tried before.
Changes to group submissions: Due to people submitting art which has nothing to do with the challenges all work submitted now requires my approval before being accepted. Please remember to tag your work with the two words used.
