Identity is multifaceted...each person has many aspects, quirks, parts etc. to their identity. As I explore my artistic identity, I need to think about what I'm attracted to. What is is about art that captivates me?
I will try to explore that question now...
1 I love color. Although I greatly appreciate the moody emotionalism that comes from a simple black and white image. But I like it when color pops; saturated color is interesting color.
2 I am captivated by depth. What ever way depth is achieved in a work (overlap, atmospheric perspective) I greatly enjoy studying and looking at layers in a work of art.
3 I am perfectly capable of loving something just because it's pretty. I <3 beauty.
4 Capturing a sense of time in a work is interesting to me....I'm thinking blurred images; one's that show movement. I don't like to freeze movement...but show movement...
Illinois Marathon
This past weekend was the Illinois Marathon. Approximately 15,000 total were participating. The day was slightly humid, a bit too much to be a perfect running day but just enough to be a perfect photography day!
Kudos to my lovely family for doing so well! My Dan ran the marathon and my Mom and Sister ran the 1/2 marathon.
Also, congratulations to everyone else who ran: Kristin, Andrew, Cody, Katie, and Scott.
This is my Dad finishing his first marathon in under 4 hours!
Also, Old Abe ran the 1/2.
