~company names~ fox cameras,  fox-pic, 

I have chosen commercial photography. Commercial photography is like general photography, the artist doesn't have a specific style, it also means that they are open to many different mediums.

For my animal I chose a fox. to many people they think of a fox as cunning or a liar. but my interpretation of a fox is that they have strong observational skills, they look at the littlest detail, they can adapt easily to (in my case) certain requests and they are very intelligent.

The few companies that I found that could be competition are~

Hawkins Photography~ Even though they are located in Vancouver this photographer is strong in pictures hat you would see in a fashion magazine.

Andrewrossphotography~  Andrew Ross is located in Toronto but I don't know if his style is one that I have so much interest in: interior and food 

Castleton~ Philip Castleton specializes in interior and exterior photographs of unique old buildings.

LINES

In CyberArts we had to create two drawings made out of lines. In the first one the lines have to be the same direction and line type, but only differ in thickness and distance between one another. The second one can vary the direction, quality, type and position.

~The first drawing has a focal point and it also shows depth. The focal point is the black rectangles that run parallel to each other. These background lines show depth by starting from thin to thick and also by the closeness of the lines as they go down the page they slowly get further apart.

 ~The second drawing is supposed to show depth and layers. I achieved this by varying the thickness of the diagonal lines and were the diagonal and vertical lines meet there is a sharp point on the inside of the line and a rounded point on the outside. With this line drawing it really depends on how the person sees it. The thicker lines could be in front or behind the lighter lines.

Manet review

Manet  "A Bar at the Folies-Bergere"

In a café in Paris the light flickers and the volume of the people around me raises. I pull up a stool and then my next piece comes to me…  A Bar at the Folies-Bergere! Its perfect, and now I will explain the imitational, formal and emotional qualities of my genius idea.


IMITATIONAL

There are some imitational qualities in this piece of art like all the detail of the bottles and bowls in the foreground. If you look closely at her dress you can see the different values in her dress. And look at the detail in the mirror you can almost see what the people are eating! Look at the waitresses ruffles there is so much detail. I love the use of the mirror in the background it makes the piece more interesting.

       FORMALISIM

In this picture there are a lot of different shades of blue. The oranges in bowl is the first thing my eye goes to when I look at it. The chandeliers are a good use of the white and light blue. The reflection from the mirror definitely makes the piece more interesting. I also noticed that most of the people in the background are wearing black and that draws the eye to the foreground then back to the background and it just keeps your eye moving.

    EMOTIONAL

The picture makes me think of many things. Like was the artist waiting for someone? Look at the mirror in the top right corner, is that what Edmund Manet looked like? In a way this is a modified self- portrait. The waitress looks like its been a long day, she looks upset or tired. I think this piece is interesting because it has many different emotions in it.
