When looking at composition think, is that the normal thing, is that what people are expecting? Could just anybody do that? If the answer is yes it might be good to approach the subject from a more creative angle.<BR/><BR/>I've taken that lesson and applied it to my photography as well. As I walk up to a subject I'll find myself composing the shot in my normal way which results in a normal and uninteresting composition. So now I no longer take a picture right away. I put the camera down and think about more interesting ways to view the subject.<BR/><BR/>You did that with this photo and it gives us a whole new perspective on this painting that we probably wouldn't have had in real life, or if you had just taken a straight-on shot.Neilson Eneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04579613032579793141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-40082212764428218282007-03-21T10:01:00.000-04:002007-03-21T10:01:00.000-04:00They say the way each artist paints is as unique a...They say the way each artist paints is as unique as handwriting or a fingerprint (the angle and pressure of the brushstrokes, etc.).

B...HI Carmi, I am still in the land of the living. Been catching up on all your posts and pictures.<BR/><BR/>I love the story of Noah, Frasier and your night on the floor. Once suggestion, get a blow up mattress so if you find yourself in this position again you can just pump it up and not have to endure the hard floor LOL.<BR/><BR/>The Canadian Geese look wonderful, we have a pair that fly over us every evening, when there is water in out field they sometimes land there and paddle around for a bit. I do have a few pictures but they arent very good because they are always so far away when they see me they "duck". :-)<BR/><BR/>I am not really into art as in paintings, dont know too much about it but I did visit the National Gallery in London and can still see those huge murals of the Edward the Eighth era. Even though they were so old the colors were vivid. The one that distinctly sticks in my mind is the picture of one of his wives awaiting the executioner. It made a deep and lasting impression on me. These pictures are really huge, maybe Anna can tell you more about them, I am sure she has been there.<BR/><BR/>I like the textures in your picture, a very different perspective on art for sure.<BR/><BR/>I will be back, may be a few days but I will check in.<BR/><BR/>Regards<BR/>LoriLori Schmidt (LoriProPhoto)https://www.blogger.com/profile/01786227217137143996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-2476409062968121412007-03-20T22:00:00.000-04:002007-03-20T22:00:00.000-04:00I love art of so many styles...this is beautiful t...I love art of so many styles...<BR/>this is beautiful though and I love your take on it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-21673823937410180442007-03-20T21:09:00.000-04:002007-03-20T21:09:00.000-04:00Verisimilitude of a painting owes itself to the te...Verisimilitude of a painting owes itself to the texture of the paint. <BR/><BR/>I remember a friend of my neighbor would manipulate his paints into different grades of thickness and spatter the colors on the canvas.
