• ‎"An intellectual says a simple thing in a hard way. An artist says a hard thing in a simple way." — Charles Bukowski

    For this assignment, we needed to produce something marketable. Basically, I needed to be inspired by something I wanted the world to hear through my artwork, and make people listen. I figured it had to be something simple yet endlessly deep... like a short sentence written by Shakespeare. I was...
  • Studio Frightening

    For my studio lighting portrait photos, I didn't want to take 3 simple photographs of the subject smiling and "sitting pretty". Instead, I found inspiration (once again) from Halloween and the masks that people wear on this strange event. I wanted to add an element of confusion and wonder to each...
  • "I've got a life sentence for breaking the rules of composition............what are you in for?"

Taking a photo successfully breaking the rules of composition AND looking beautiful at the same time have proved...
  • Geometry is not true, it is advantageous. -Henri Poincare

    I really like all the lines and shapes in this photo. When shooting this, I incorporated the flourescent lighting from above, the streetlights on the street (behind the window), moonlight and my own light source being a small light set up on subject's right. I used a Canon Rebel T2i with an...

The Connective Cyanotype

0 comments
Alternative processes in photography have distinguished themselves in my mind as bold ways of letting out a message creatively while making the viewer's eyes intrigued and thirsty for more. However, I believe the purpose of art is for people to make their own connections whilst lost in the mystery of an artist's work. This is exactly what I wanted to accomplish while putting together a "triple" exposure...
