ABSTRACT in QUOTIDIAN*
(*of every day)
I love taking class, not only because of the new knowledge I can acquire and the chance to get my work critiqued and to improve on it, but most especially because of the homework. It pushes me to challenge myself to try something new, to risk, to problem-solve, to innovate or even create! It pushes me to squeeze out all the latent creative juices in me. So for my latest class, I decided to do abstract photography! Quite a feat for someone who has dabbled in people and nature photography for the past six months.
I have to admit that I never understood abstract art, and I'm saying this even though I probably should be, being a fine artist as well. In my art paintings, I shied away from this type of art. It never clicked with me. But with abstract art in photography, I got intrigued! I'm still discovering why this is so. The best way I am discovering this is hands on! On day one before I knew it, well as soon as I took my fourth photo actually, I was head over heels with abstract. Here are a few of them. More will be posted, as the weeks come by, for sure!
