I started out with this project by reading the text and watching the video titled Photography as Art. I also walked around my house for a bit observing the different things while trying to apply the principals and elements of art to them. It was actually very evident how these elements and principals would translate in my photographs. I used a Samsung digital camera to take the photographs. I spent a couple hours deciding on what I would use. I also took several pictures of each example and kept the best shot. Some of the photos were taken of objects as they naturally would be. Other photos were taken of arranged objects that I put together. I have lots of plants and children's toys in my house so you will see many of the pictures carry this theme. I have included embedded pictures,and links to my Photobucket website.
Here is a direct link to my Photobucket slideshow album:

Here are the photographs I embedded directly into this blog. They demonstrate the different elements of design:

I really enjoyed looking at your project. I like that you used simple everyday house items to portray each of the elements and principals. Your cat image for the proportion example is really beautiful and i think it was my favorite from your example. Overall, very nice job.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed all of your photos! I as well, went around the house and found objects that dealt with the principles and elements of art. That in itself goes to show that the principles and elements of art can be found anywhere and everywhere. My favorite picture was your photo on emphasis with all the stuffed animals. I liked how all of the animals were grey in tone and the red animal stuck out like a sore thumb. I knew it was emphasis without even looking at the title. Awesome Job!
