ART PANTS – A WILL ROEGGE & LINHBERGH YEAR LONG DAILY 365 PHOTO CHALLENGE bio picture

What is Art Pants?

Art Pants is a 365 day-long-daily-photography-challenge, featuring Will Roegge and Linhbergh Nguyen which was started on November 1st, 2009. Our goal is to each publish one photograph a day for an entire year. But different from usual "photo 365s" out there, we've set ourselves a rules to abide by throughout the year:

1. No photos of anything automobile related

2. No self portraits.

Both of those rules are there to prevent us from going the easy route on taking our daily photos, or in other words, to use a crutch. The purpose of this project is to make the both of us think outside of our usual subjects and expand our creative defaults. The harder we make it upon ourselves, the better off we'll be creatively (or so we hope so!) come Novemeber 1st 2010.

We'll also be having different 'theme weeks' throughout the year. These themes could range from different subject matters; places, portraits, grass, sunrises, landscapes, faces, etc, etc. Or it could even be a technical theme; biggest aperature, smallest aperature, slow shutter speeds, 35mm film, camera phone fast action, etc....

We would love to hear your input throughout the course of the year. If you have ANY ideas for theme weeks or shots you'd like to see, let us know!

Oh, we both love black coffee and we both love Art Pants.

DAY 126 – No excuses

There aren’t any excuses that can make my absence from this site acceptable because, well, it really is unacceptable. I’ve creatively alienated myself from the exact reason why this site got started and most importantly, I’ve alienated all of you that have supported me so much. Prepare for an ARTPANTS photo dump –I’ve got quite...

Day 57 – Happiness is a Warm Gun

Day #57 – The Beatles’ White Album is easily my favorite of their work. I hated the Beatles for the longest time. While many people come to love and appreciate the music they were raised on – the Beatles always bothered me and I could not appreciate their sound. Then I grew up. Loved someone,...

Day 56 – Brownie, your still a puppy to me.

Day #56 – Brownie is my family’s long haired Dachshund. I picked him out from a pet store as a puppy over 15 years ago. Fifteen is long life for a wiener dog. While he’s now grey in the face, blind, and mostly deaf – he is still one of the most unique animals I’ve...

Day 54 – Pops 2

Day #54 – My family is becoming accustomed to me photographing them. Which has allowed to get the more natural images that are better representative of their personalities. Not what someone is trying to present when they realize that they are being photographed. Here is a quiet moment with my dad as he enjoys a...
