what I have been working on so far

Each one still needs work but if you have any comments that would be great help! This weekend I'm going to shoot my own concrete besides using stock photos that I used the burn tool and other things to make my own but like Jessica commented to me during last class I should want to take my own so I can fully appreciate and own my work. With also shooting the concrete I'm going to be taking other photos with different models.

after the critic

I have been working on the things that were stated during the critic and it's working out alright i'm not where I want to be with it to post on here but i will be posting later this week what i have so far. A lot of the comments were very helpful to get a new eye and fresh ideas on what to do with my work rather than me just doing what I thought was good.

This semster

I'm going to continue on the process of gestures but not do religion based project this time around. I want to keep up on the bright colors since the last one I did was better than the others in the series. I have a few artist that I'm looking at right now that use color, and light that I'm drawn to and interested in. I will be posting some of their work or the links to their work to give you an idea of their use of color and light.

Transfering

I have transferred two out of the three works from my newest piece i will post a picture of what it will look like but not done all the way. I have to print out the cross again so that I can have more of the same material on the piece to work with.

What inspires me is bright lights and warm neon colors at night time.

The Photography Show

While attending the photography show I was really interested in the works of Casey Waters. The effect of Daguerreotype was amazing. Even though it was a very long process to make the outcome is beautiful. The mirror like image is small but very effective. It's something old but new to most people who have seen it. The other works were alright not saying that they weren't. I was just more interested into the Daguerreotype.

working without thinking

This week I was supposed to work with out over thinking everything. I actually got a lot of ideas doing this I just need to go out this weekend and shoot some pictures to work on this better. Besides just Christianity there are many other religions that are looked at in a negative way and also in good ways. One other religion I'm planning on working with is Islam. One piece will deal with their prayer that they have to perform five times a day. I'm researching more on this matter so that I can work better with it. I believe if you dont know about something or have experienced it yourself the best next thing is research.

I worked mostly with the red one this week I got some further along on the blue one but that one has alot of work ahead meaning im going to have to go re shoot this so that I have a religious background besides the concert scene I was trying to do to show the group of people.
