Studenec-Place



=Starting with the leftmost picture, it demonstrates cityscape from a different perspective than the traditional cityscapes. This artist, Zu Sanchez, shows Venice, Italy from the water. Which is appropriate for the city because it has a lot of water around it. Also incorporated in the photo is a gondola which is a common way of transportation in Venice. He took this photograph during the day using the sun as a source of natural light to illuminate the colors and richness of the variety of tones in the photo. This artist typically includes water in their photos and they are also typically of architecture, cities, or exotic places. This photograph emits a joyful glow from the brightness of the colors. Also, leading lines and level horizon are demonstrated in this picture. All though the horizon is level, it looks as though the picture is slanted because of the water meeting the buildings. Also, texture from the structures and water are a large factor in how your eyes are taking in the entirety of the photo.= https://www.flickr.com/photos/jesfarma/7141423579/in/photostream/

=The middle photo was taken by a man named Steven Brett Stoddart and it was taken in Wisconsin in a series that focused on abandoned buildings and architecture. He is known for his focus on fine art, architectural, commercial and event photography. This photo displays a scene that looks old and decayed, yet something most Americans do on a daily basis: watch TV. There seems to be a lot of natural or maybe available light in the photo. This is an interior shot of an old house or office possibly. It was taken in Steven's Point, Wisconsin. There is almost a sense of comfort from the clutter because most people who have the time to sit and watch TV, have a mess around them or it is similar to a metaphor for the life they either left, or are living. Messy. There are a few leading lines with the TV but I feel that the most prominent aspect is the focal point of the picture, because rule of thirds is there, but it is obvious what he was photographing.= http://portalwisconsin.org/modernruins.cfm

=The final photo on the right is a landscape of a waterfall in Australia. It was taken by a person named Devar on flickr. When I further delved into his work, I found that he does a variety of work including cities, people, planes, and bands. His work isn't of the main person, but it is of the background with the person washed out. Almost as a silhouette but with more color to it. I found this photo on a travel website of a couple who wanted to take a trip to Australia. He uses natural light to capture the color similar to the other two artists. Along with that the texture from the rocks creates an interesting feel to the photo, also the water is a sort of blurred leading line. Fill the frame is also illustrated by the way that the entire picture has either rocks or water in it. This is a warm and beautiful picture that makes me personally feel longing because it is my dream to go to Australia.= https://www.flickr.com/photos/devar/ media type="youtube" key="C9Zgk2u7okQ" width="420" height="315"media type="youtube" key="w-OMDP8zb0M" width="560" height="315"

=Instead of using a different medium than paper that we have printed on for the past projects, I want to use a picture that keeps the image in it's original form. So it's not distorted by any of the texture another medium may present. I decided to use printable canvas so that it still is something different, but keeps my image in its 'true' form. I want my colors to stay vibrant and rich with a happy mood to the picture. I want the picture to be in midday sun because then the colors will be vibrant and happy in the sun. I want to illustrate a literal 'mindscape' that has a profile view of a person with the background all black so that it is a silhouette and then I want to cut out the mind of the person and implant the place that they are dreaming of so that it shows that, that is the place they love.=
