So i don't really blog a lot so i figured i should try it out while I'm sitting in class doing nothing. So far this Photography class rocks. I just want to try to change the way people look at the world. I want them to see it how i see it, if only for a split second. There is so much beauty in the world and we should all take the time to see it. And I'm not just talking about nature like some hippie. Everything is beautiful, including buildings and trash. and i haven't always thought this way but a big even happened in my life and i realized we don't have much time on this earth so we have to make the best of every minute of every day.

No one can be mad at a basset hound.

The Wade Brothers.

The wade Brothers are Lindsey and Lyndon. They are a photography team that have recently been photographing for major company's like Gatorade. But they have their own project, Room 107. Their photos are all very interesting. they are taken in a different way, more abstract and focusing on color and the shadows in those colors.They are all very simple and draw your eye exactly to what they want you to look at. The thing I love about their photos is that, especially in their personal project, their photos tell a story, every part of every photo is making up a story.

Larry Zox's paintings are pure simplicity but they each have a little something off about them. Always a line or two out of place slightly, but just enough that the onlooker is drawn in to these imperfections. I think that these lines out of place make his simple paintings beautiful.

Ryan Mosley's art is different to say the least. It is filled with limbs all over the place and with figures that each have their own unique look. I love how the figures in his paintings all seem to be happy, even though you can not see any faces. His process is the most interesting thing about his paintings, he doesn't set out with a full painting in mind. He starts with an idea for a bent leg leaning on something and adds to it what looks right. He will paint over things in his painting until he is satisfied. So the paintings we see are not what the beginning project looked like at all.
