Bohn-Place

1. Click the plus sign by Pages and Files in the upper left. **Name your page with your last name-place**, so my page would be Bjork-Place.

**2. Explain what type of space this image represents (landscape, cityscape etc.)?** The three photos that I chose show landscape, cityscape, and internalscape. These photos show those types of places because for a landscape it shows nature. For example the photo by John Paul Caponigro shows a beautiful photo captured outside containing a strong horizon line between the ocean and land. For cityscape it’s showing the mood of places downtown so for my photo chosen above by Merve Ozaslan, it’s showing a little business that would be in the city. Lastly, internalscape shows the inside of a house. The photo taken by Paul Politis allows you to see the inside of a home which is an internalscape.

The three different photos I chose all contain a different mood. John Paul Caponigro’s photo gives a magical kind of dreams come true type of mood. This differs from Paul Politis’s photo which gives a dark eery type of feeling. Lastly Merve Ozaslan’s photo is a hopeful mood because of the daisies in the background.
 * 1) **Explain What mood is evoked by the artist?**

John Paul Caponigro’s work is very religious and he works with a lot of photoshop to give his photo’s more of a mindset feel. The photo I chose by him shows these skills by the photo giving you hope which compares to religion because with the belief of a God there is always hope. Also his photo has what looks like stars in the water which isn’t realistic so it’s more imaginative. Merve Ozaslan was another artist I focused on because when he makes artwork he photoshops nature with human or things we use in our everyday lives. With the photo I have by Merve, you can understand this type of artwork by daisies being photoshopped in the background of the store. Lastly, Paul Politis photographs in a lot of black and white along with choosing photos that have a deep and main focus. This is shown in the picture I choose by him because it’s in black and white and it has a deep and main focus with wanting to go downstairs, but also having a fear of what’s down there.
 * 1) **Explain Who the artist is, like what kind of work do they do? how does this image show that type of work?**

**5. Explain what type of compositional technique (leading lines, rule of thirds, framing, fill the frame, level horizon, focal point and point of view) the artist used to create their portraits.** The first compositional technique that sticks out to me is Merve Ozastan’s photo with daisies due to the outline of the door leading you to the flowers. In this photo you can also see the rule of thirds because the man is off to the side. With John Paul Caponigro’s work, he uses level of horizon with the different landscapes he photographs. In all of Paul Politis’s photos he changes the point of view of the photograph by taking the photo at an odd angel.

6. **Tell who the artist is that shot the photo and the title of the image if available. If you use flickr.com images you may not get the actual name of the person so use their user name.** "Flovershop" by Merve Ozaslan, Paul Politis Vertigo, John Paul Caponigro “Constelation VIII"

I hope that for this project I am able to to transfer my photo to either glass or a mirror. Depending which concept I use it will differ where I will transfer the photo. I really want to use this stunning photo I took of Colorado and then transfer the photo to a mirror because every time I then look into the mirror it will look like I'm in Colorado.
 * 7. Explain the printmaking te chnique you hope to use and how it will illustrate your concept for this project. **

This summer I went to Colorado and I fell in love with every part of it. I plan on living there when I'm older which is how I came up with the mirror idea because I wish I could always be in the rocky mountains. When I was in Colorado I took this beautiful photo of some mountains so my image will consist of mountains (landscape).
 * 8. Explain your concept for this project. What will your imagery look like, why? **

I will be portraying a delightful type of mood and just hopeful. In the photo there is a bright natural light coming through the mountains.
 * 9. What mood and lighting will your portray? **

With incorporating mountains and a lot of nature I will be using landscape.
 * 10. What type of place will you illustrate (landscape, cityscape etc.) **

I hope I can make my image about 18in x 14in printed onto a mirror. Using the video above I will be able to know how to properly transfer the image onto a mirror.
 * 11. Explain how large the final image will be and what it will be printed onto. Refer to the original Portrait of A Place Resource Page for details on the techniques. **
