Paper Abstract Photography Dear friends finally I am able to take some time for sharing the behind the scene secrets on paper abstract work with you all. I hope you will enjoy it & ignore the delayed publication of this article.

How it all started ?

I love to shoot all subjects which attracts me irrespective of what it is ! I have not yet restricted myself to any specific genre in the photography. I am not a professional photographer & can only utilize my weekends/holidays time for the hobby. Considering my small kid "Manas" which is now around 15 months old I had to restrict my freedom for shooting outdoor on weekends. This focused my attention to family portraits, still life & abstracts.

[pic]
Image 1 : Motion : This shot was taken to convey the feel of motion using still life. During taking this shot for getting the movements of paper I allowed to move the end of papers with the help of ceiling fan. The the ripples on stable glass bottom added virtual feel of motion. This image also adds me the nostalgia effect of the children playing the game of push toy wheel in my childhood days. EXIF:100mm, f/11, 1/40 sec, ISO 800

Image 2: Delicate Curves: Using color papers & white papers can add interesting reflections of color on the white papers. This shot is extreme closeup of folds of papers showing delicate curves. It may appear as closeup of a door handle due to the shape & colors gradation. EXIF:100mm,f/5.6.1/80 sec, ISO 400

I was struggling to fulfill my thrust for the hobby due to stopped outdoor activity. One day while surfing through online photo galleries I came across beautiful abstract work done by a photographer using everyday subject. I found it really inspiring & as a solution for my need, indoor photography. I started shooting on paper abstract work. I was enjoying it & what's more it was getting very well appreciated by my friends. That helped me to focus even more on this interesting genre of abstract photography. I

    The next piece is a contemporary piece of art that you could not take your eyes of when you walked into the room. This was a piece that I felt had that wow factor to it which intrigued me to look more in depth in to it. This I feel is an optical allusion that use lighting, lines, and color to make the object look like it are floating in air. There is a dim round line that blend into the wall and its shadow…

    Suzanne Roles Bio And Analysis

    Suzanne Roles studied painting and printmaking at Camberwell School of Art from 1979 to 1983.Her still lives are based upon photographs taken with macro lenses and also use natural light to create dramatic shadows, therefore exploring the main interests of space, colour and texture. She is influenced by 16th/ 17th century Spanish still life artists. “My still lives are based upon aerial photographs taken using natural light to create dramatic shadows,” she says, "therefore exploring my main interests of space, colour and texture. Oil paint is particularly suitable for recreating the rich and voluptuous nature of fruit.” “I work in layers building up the image with varying thickness of paint, allowing each layer to dry before continuing, and finally finishing with glazing.” Analysis of the image- The image is 2 full raspberries and 5 parts of raspberries drawn with oil pastels, the raspberries are a shade of warm light to dark crimson and with whites and blacks as the background. The image has very vivid and lively colours which makes the raspberries look juicy and full. The light is coming from the left-middle, this is shown by the reflection of the light on the raspberries mostly on the left top. The image was most probably drawn from sight with the raspberries being in front of her because the raspberries are drawn with exceptional detail and with accurate size and shape. The image looks very realistic and 3D because of the colour and light, the overall shape of the raspberries are a uneven oval-cirlce's. The composition of the raspberries are crowed together to maybe give the effect of there being a lot of them. The texture of the raspberries are shiny and smooth which means that it was drawn by long full strokes to make each “bead” of the raspberries look fat and round. The media that Suzanne used was oil pastels, the techniques she probably used was with long strokes and using white or other colours on top to avoid the oil pastel coming…

    Essay On Photorealism

    Human figures are also treated in the same detached fashion, which tends to dehumanize them, as in Chuck Close’s Self-portrait (Figure 1) in which he renders himself through the distortions made by a glass tile. The representation of light, as well as the interaction of light and color together, has concerned artists throughout the ages. By using slide machines to project images onto bare canvas Photorealism for the first time unites color and light together as one element. The capturing of light is most especially evident in the highly reflective surfaces of steel and…

    Impressionism In Art

    In the following picture, there are various artistic elements and formats. In the background and foreground of the image, it is a neutral color scheme, consisting of whites and browns. In the center of the picture, you will see three basketballs floating in a straight line in an underwater tank. This sculpture really gives the image an architectonic feel. First off the table that is holding the tank is made up of linear lines and the tank is also made up of linear lines which makes the geometric shape of a rectangle. The bold lines around the tank are the contour lines. Inside the tank, it gives the viewer an attectonic feel due to the basketballs inside. The basketballs are made up of curvilinear lines and each ball has a type of writing on, which I will talk about later. The middle basketball brings out the complementary colors, which are orange and blue. The tank is a three-dimensional figure. All in all, this image brings something to the art world.…

    Personal Narrative: How Adversity Has Changed My Life

    I researched the different means to get my images out to people who would enjoy them. Small doubts crept into the periphery but I was looking ahead. No downward spirals, the only way was forward. I learned the formatting rules and created a cover. I published my first coloring book on January 25th, 2017 and I continue to draw. Two sometimes three images in a day came through. My mind was free and it was time to express itself.…

    Reflective Essay For Photography Class

    Sports, portraits, architecture, still life, I didn’t know where to begin! I decided to do contact my friend, Elysabeth, who was already in the commercial photography class so she could give me some tips for taking great pictures. She told me to start by a genre of photography that I had the most trouble in and work my way down to the easier categories. I took her advice and wow, did that help! Since I had the most difficulty in sports photography, I started with taking action-shots of the athletes at games, and they actually turned out all right, thanks to paying attention to my teacher in the Principles class. Then, I worked down to portraits and asked the most photogenic friends of mine to model for me. I used different angles of light and poses in order to use my photo characterize my friends as different emotions. Those photos turned out pretty well too; my confidence in my art increased when Elysabeth critiqued my pictures and told me that I had a good chance of making it into the Commercial Photography class. I was excited, but my challenges weren’t…

    Danforth Art Museum Essay

    “Untitled 1” and Untitled 5” are 16 x 20 archival inkjet prints. The image “Untitled 1” shows the end of an empty hallway on the second floor of the house. A stair railing cuts through the center of the photograph and travels left, meeting the frame of a door that is barely open. The slight crack in this doorway reveals a small portion of what appears to be a flower vase on a dresser in a brightly lit room. The ceiling to the left is torn, uncovering a large area of its dark wooden frame. To the right of the unmasked portion of the ceiling, a quiet smoke detector hovers over what viewers can presume to be stairs below. Although the smoke detector is smaller in size, it remains prominent near the foreground of the picture plane. It is clear that a significant amount of paint is peeling off of the plaster ceiling, especially to the right. The focus of “Untitled 1” is on the wall facing the…

    Since I was old enough to hold a crayon, I have wanted to be an artist. The desire to create has grown exponentially with time, and so I attended the University of Iowa to expand my creative capabilities and learn from the work of experienced faculty and other students. Through my studies, I quickly learned a traditional fine arts education focused on technique. However, I learned the strength of my art resided in the conceptualization of my own story and emotions…

    Photography

    I love taking pictures of everything. Everything I see I try to find some beauty in it and take a picture of it. I think for a quick second about if the subject or object is worth my time and just snap the picture. I take it from different angles and then I pick out the best picture of that object or subject that looks exactly like what I saw at that time. I find when I do this I usually get the photo that I want and I am so happy about that. Before I started the class I would get upset when my pictures would come out blurry or faded out looking. Learning about aperture and shutter speed and ISO has showed me that I can control how I want my photo to be. When I took the picture of the discarded fire truck in the creek I wanted to try a show how the gray color of the stones below contrasted with the red color of the fire truck. After taking the photo I realized that yes, I could see the colors and it was beautiful how you could see the stones at the bottom of the creek even more. The use of the color contrasts with the flowers was great too. I wanted to show the layers in the sunflower and how vibrant and vivid the color stood out. The same with the orange flowers. The pictures I took of my boys in the lake playing were just one of those moments that I was trying to capture quickly. The boys were moving a lot and I wanted to make sure that I had them in focus but I also wanted the viewer to know they were in the water and playing. I wanted to show the movement of the water as well as have the…
