LiveSTRONG With A Taste of Yellow 2010 - Heart Series

October 2nd has been announced as  LiveSTRONG Day 2010.

LiveSTRONG With A Taste of Yellow is happening again...but with a new theme.

Throughout 2010 I have been posting a heart each Saturday. I thought it might be fun to incorporate the hearts in this years LiveSTRONG Day event.

So here is how it will work. On Saturday 2nd October I'd like everyone to create and post their own heart photo to their blog.  If you don't have a blog you can post to a Flickr or Project 365 page.

There are a couple of rules.

1. The photo must include a yellow food.

2. It must feature a heart in the photo - this could be food baked in a heart shape or food decorated with hearts.

3. Your heart photo must be created specifically for this LiveSTRONG With A Taste Of Yellow - Heart Series.  It may also be submitted to events such as DMBLGIT, Tastespotting, FoodGawker, Flickr groups, Project 365 .

4. Please include a link  to this post. It helps raise awareness of LiveSTRONG Day.

As this is more of a creative excercise a recipe isn't necessary, but if you want to include a recipe, please do.

Perhaps you have a cancer story to share. Or you might like to honour a family member or friend touched by cancer by dedicating your  heart to them.

After you have posted your heart (on 2nd October),  send me the link with your name,  and I will post a list and link on winos and foodies to all the hearts the following week.

I fell in love with  Philippa Blair's art back in the '80's. In particular, her folded and painted canvas' known as the tepee series. Way out of my price range, but I was able to afford a couple of her lithographs.   'Mon Coeur' above, was part of a series of her works featuring hearts.

Ocean Emotion by Martin Hill , a New Zealand artist.

 
And thanks to Sam for this Banksy  work in San Francisco.

Recently two of Banksy's works have been painted over by local councils. One in Melbourne, Australia and another in the UK.
