WEEK 2

Assignment: To find 25 old pictures from the Lincoln era and also to take 25 current era pictures.

Craft: For my 25 old era pictures, i searched online to find them from various sources, and for the new era pics i either shot new ones with my digital camera or found old ones that i thought went well.

Composition: I chose these two pictures as my best or favorites because of the content. The first picture is of my niece and me sleeping on the couch and i love that little girl to death. The other picture is of General Sherman from the Civil War and i chose this one because he is one of my favorite historical figures.

Concept: I chose these two particular pictures to be mixed together because i feel that the most interesting part of anything is to look at its contrast. These two pictures are completely opposite. The little girl is the picture of pure innocence in a dress up wedding dress and the man in chains portrays the exact opposite of that, an evil man convicted of murder. I find that the contrast of anything is what makes it interesting to look at.

WEEK 1

Assignment- To create a personal blog, choose a template and post your first response with a picture.

Craft- I logged onto Blogger.com and went through the layed out steps to create my blog. I uploaded a picture of my beautiful niece, Stella and me onto the first blog and then completed all of the required fields for the assignment.

Composition- In this first blog i have an assignment field, craft      field, composition field, concept field and a photo area. I chose the template because it is simple and i really like the color blue. Also it is much easier when everything is organized. I chose this picture of my niece, Stella, and me because she is a little ball of fun and keeps me guessing and i like that.

    Concept- For this first post it was about getting to know the person a little better and also to introduce us to this format of schoolwork and art. As for what makes me so good, i never claimed to be in the first place.
