Welcome Back! - A start of the second term

Welcome to the first post from the second term.

In this term this blog will be used for presenting work progress from the Art Portfolio Module.

This term we will be creating to major projects, which later will be placed in our portfolios. In this course I hope to make a major progress in my photography skills and techniques as well as expand my knowledge of photo editing software, such as Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom.

During the brake I have watched a new Pixar Animation, called 'Soul', in which some of the characters were created based on the light paintings made by Pablo Picasso. I had no idea, that Picasso was creating artworks in this field. It was very inspiring for me, since Cubism is an art movement I very much admire, and obviously as a photographer I am interested in all of the photography techniques.



I am truly amazed by the precision in which these photographs are made, however after all they were made by an amazing photographer Gjon Mili, who specialized in such pictures. His photos are often created on the black background with a long exposure, both of these techniques are giving his photographs unreal and surreal feeling.
