#Applifam31Mar is live at the @applifam and @jvdt (High-resolution photo) profile links! 🎨🌻 #Applifam 2.0 ended on 25 September, 2018. The last original photos had been taken in Stavropol, Russia, and then, we stopped the weekly #applifam_w_series and #applifam_s_series weekend activities that had been running for a year. 🎨 On 3 November, 2020, after a 2-year break, #Applifam 3.0 was launched, as a mix between back-to-the-basics daily editing, and a weekly hashtag gallery #SolidarityArt activity as well. ❤️🌻 The first decade of the development of @electronicsocialart was tethered to the Calvados region of France, between @TrouvilleSurMer and @Honfleur. In the second decade, we are moving over into the Seine Maritime department of France, following in the steps of those who went before, who stood, like us, on the threshold of a new industrial and communication revolution, and it's impact upon the development of artistic thought and expression. ☀️ For the next month, we will be visiting some of the moments from the two silent years, and also working with original photos in new countries and regions that we haven't visited before. 🎨 This photo was taken by @jvdt on 13 June, 2019, in a Russian village in the Ivanovo Oblast, about 250 km northeast of Moscow. 🎨 Local leaders had invited us to visit a village that was dying, due to large-scale urbanization and post-Soviet societal developments. 🌻 Theme suggestions: 1. Metaphors of Hope 2. Painterly Impressions 3. Pastel perfection 4. Abstract symmetry 5. Blended word art in support of the weekly #ApplifamW64 activity and themes. 🌻🎨 Enjoy!
