New Concentration Piece!

Concentration In-Progress

    My concentration is all about fear. Through the medium of photography I have taken what people think to be common fears and phobias and have shed a somewhat positive light on them. Fear can be crippling and the fears shown in this concentration are very real and affect people around the world. I decided to put a positive spin on these fears because I want the message of this concentration to be that there can be good found even in bad situations. 

Fear of Death

Fear of heights

Claustrophobia?

Fear of Being Alone... Being alone's not scary because you can read!

Weekly Challenge 8

My opposite is grungy/HDR stuff so this was a photo I took in Boulder and made it HDR.

Silk Painting - The Climb

   This is my silk painting entitled "The Climb" meaning the flowers' growth and such.

I would give myself an AP score of 4 because: 

The work shows a good investigation of a variety of 2-D design principles. 

4.B The work demonstrates some originality, some innovative thinking, and purposeful 

manipulation of the elements and principles of 2-D design. 

4.C The work shows good application of 2-D design principles to an acceptable range of design 

problems. 

4.D The work shows a variety of intentions and purposes, although they may not be clearly 

articulated. 

4.E Some of the work has discernible evocative or engaging qualities, though confidence is not 

strongly apparent; conversely the work may display confidence but not be engaging. 

.4.F The work demonstrates good technical competence and use of materials and media; 

technical aspects and articulation of ideas do not always work together. 

4.G Within the apparent appropriation of published or photographic sources or the work of 

other artists, the student’s “voice” is discernible; the images have been manipulated to 

express the student’s individual ideas.
