Art of Space

For the past week or two, I have been working on space in art. There are two kinds of space: positive and negative. Mostly I have been working with Negative space for those past two weeks and it is very interesting. We did art that concerns the space that is not solid around an object or objects. We drew that negative space and "doodled" init to make the poaitive space we didn't draw stand out.

Before that we had worked on positive space where we drew shoes with detail. We then made that space stand out by drawing texture around the poitive space. The dark colors of the texture made the black and white of the positive space stand out.

Space in itself helps form art to make things beautiful and adds depth. Space is an art.

The Art of Photography

Photography is an amazing form of art. When you are the photographer, you choose a form of natural beauty to take a picture of. If you are a child's photographer, you choose to take pictures of the beauty in children. Their sweet smiles and cute faces. If you are a landscape photographer, you take the beauty from what God gave us through nature. Their are so many different subjects to take pictures of what you take pictures of can lead to meaning in the art.

There is also the colors of the Photograph that is part of the art. It could hint at what the hidden meaning can be. It can just be what makes something in ordinary life more beautiful and make us see what beauty we see every day.

Photographers are artists. Their paintbrush is their camera, their canvas is picture paper, and their subject is the world.

Art in All Forms

In the Webster's Dictionary, art is defined as the conscious use of skill and creative imagination especially in the production of aesthetic objects. From this definition, you can conclude that art can be anything of some form of beauty. It can range from music to illustrations, literature to movement. The phrase "a work of art" can be used for more then what most people use it for now a days. It can be used to describe a good book, a well sung song, or even a photograph or movie.


Most people now a days think of art as a visual display of color, depth, creativity, etc. People think of it as visual pictures, drawings or sculptures that don't use words. When they think of music or dance, it is as there own category instead of one of myriads of subcategories of one huge category.


So I close to you today with this: Art is beauty, it comes in all forms.
