My first entry this week is my weekly sketch. The basic concept is a human hand drawing a manikin, who is painting a stick figure. I was inspired to draw this image because I thought that is shos the evolution of art from when you are young to when your art "grows up." I started drawing the manikin, but then I decided to make it more interesting with the hand and the fact that the manikin is drawing. This concept is important to myself as an aspiring artist, in that my art has to be able to evolve and change.
My next entries are pictures that I took on my class trip to Europe this last summer.
I'm inspired by this first image because I like the way that there is a contrast between the lighter sky and the dark water. The reflections on the water are also interesting because it shows movement on the water.
This next image is of the Eiffel Tower. This structure is probably one of the most photographed in the world, but this picture that I took was pretty inspiring to me. The contrast between the light blue sky and the yellow in the tower was exciting to me. I loved the point of view looking up, and as an aspiring designer, it is important that I should be able to take images with an interesting point of view.
These next two images are similar enough, so I will talk about them both at the same time. What struck me about these images was the fact that you could take such interesting light images with just a digital camera. I didn't know that just the camera had so many possibilities, and for me, it's important to know that the tools that I use have almost an infinate number of possibilities.
All four of these images were very inspiring to me as I was looking through images from my trip. The different compositions of the images really appealed to me, and I hope that as I progress, I'll be able to improve on the composition of my work.
