paper

december fourth

hooray for paper. i think that these are some of the strongest photos that i took all semester in art381, and my dear professor graded them as such. hooray, for once!

i backlit some drawing paper with a studio strobe, then layered pieces of paper over it. i used a reflected light meter to evaluate what my levels would be (particularly how dark the paper would be).

i love the texture in the paper; it has so much character and interest, and it's especially crucial in the first image. i really like how abstracted the second and third are, and i enjoy the human element of the fourth.

i'm addicted to shooting paper now.

name: ben lester      I really like the 3rd one. It reminds me of landscaping. Either, an ocean with mountains behind it, or a prarie with mountains behind it. I am not only writing this because I like it, but because I am sitting at the computer the homework in front of my face and I'm finding a reason not to do it. .: dec 05
