Project #1

http://s1311.beta.photobucket.com/user/kmagle/library/Project%201%20-%20AED%20200

I really enjoyed doing this project.  It was a fun way to learn about the different elements and principles of art.  I mainly took pictures around my house and just during my days of being out and about.  I really had to think about what I was going to do for the picture.  Like for the picture for 'space,' I read about how the space between objects was called negative space so I took dishes out of my cupboard and set them up equal distances from each other.  Some were difficult to think of something to take a picture of but looking at the sample really helped.

  1. I think that the photos that you posted were EXCELLENT and I depressed about the quality of the pictures that I took compared to yours. There were three that really stood out to me in your photos. I think that in addition to being a really good picture the “Balance” photo is a good example of this element. The pathway leading to the mausoleum separates the photo and creates a sense of balance. The second photo that I thought was especially good was the “Space” photo. The shadows really add a third dimension to the photo along with the spacing between the plates. Finally, the “Movement” photo is really impressive. Usually landscape photos do not look that good but this one is certainly an exception.

  2. Have you ever thought about going into photography? Some of your pictures were AMAZING. My absolute favorite one was the picture that represented balance. That picture was very well thought out

  3. I really liked looking at all of your pictures. "Balance," "shape," and "color" were the ones that really caught my eye. All of your pictures were very well done and captured each element/principle in a unique way.

  4. I have to say, that after looking through your photos the one that really caught my eye was color. The sprinkles popped at me before I even began to really look at your photos, and now I'm in the mood for ice cream.

    The shape photo is pretty cool, too. Where did you take this?

    1. I went to sculpture park out near Ellicotville and that is one of the first sculptures there. You just step inside and look up and that's what you see.

  5. Your project was very good, I especially liked the lit candle picture. The light is gives off is a great aspect of the picture.
