Show season is beginning and what pieces do I want to enter?
1. Finley - this by far has ben my most successful piece at previous art shows this year. I also just really love how Finley is placed in the picture.
2. One Leg - For some reason I just find this picture really interesting. It shows movement and also the composition of the boy is interesting in the way he is standing.
3. Center of Attention - This piece is different from the rest of my work, because it has color. This piece actually shows that I can do something other than black and white images.
4. Solo Act - Another Finley picture. She has been in some of my most successful pictures. I think it is because the way I show children is unconventional and unposed that make her such a success as my model.
5. Behind the Shadow - I had always wanted to do a shadow shoot, and I think it actually turned out really well. If you look at the picture it looks nothing like my sister in person. I also really like the way that her eye look in the photograph.
I feel that everyone in this art portfolio class excels in there own style, so I can't necessarily say that one student stands out from the other for the simple fact that no one in this class produces the same art. We each have our own ideas and projects that are completely different. My work stands out from my peers because it is completely different from everyone. I am the only one in this class that is solely committed to photography.
I like art shows! I think it is a good accomplishment to be a part of art shows so I don't take it for granted. Yes it hard work trying to get everything ready for the shows so yes it is frustrating, but also in the end it is worth it. And yes I have anxieties about the art shows because even though I like and understand my art doesn't mean that the judge necessarily will. I know I will complain about all the upcoming art shows because that means that I have to do more work. But hey I am LAZY!! It will be worth it when it is all over with.
