Steve McCurry

One of my favorite photographers is one by the name of Steve McCurry. A Pennsylvania native, Steve studied film at Pennsylvania State University before he worked for a newspaper company. Steve then began to travel to places in Asia with just a camera to begin his photography career. In 2004, Steve founded a company called ImagineAsia. This nonprofit organization partners with world and even local leaders to help underprivileged children in Afghanistan receive education. 

Steve's work ranges from beautiful, untouched landscapes to portraits capturing genuine emotion.  Steve's photography is most notable for the clever way he captures raw emotions and experiences in real time.

  1. I love how in each photo the color of the eyes of the child is enhanced using the colors in the landscape.

Last Blog Post

This is my last blog post for my senior year, so I'd like to say that I am so glad I took DMA classes throughout high school. I've learned so much and I wouldn't be where I am today without my experiences in the classes. I will be attending the Savannah College of Art and Design this coming fall and I couldn't be more excited. I'm thinking about majoring and working in the film industry, however, I will be pursuing all and any forms of art in the future as well. From a fellow artist: take the opportunities that you are given and work hard doing what you love.

Speed Painting

This a painting made in Photoshop by a guy who goes by the name " The Concept Painter " on Youtube. He does lots of Photoshop speed painting videos and also air brush videos. This particular painting took him 3.5 hours to complete and was made using a drawing tablet similar to the ones we use in our class.

Another Comic Book Artist (Woo!): Annie Wu

 If you have talked to me for more than one minute, I am a huge nerd. So, I am making another post about comic book artists. This time it's Annie Wu. She's a comic book artists who lives in Chicago, and is one of my inspiration artists for my sustained investigation. A lot of her work is dramatic with deep and dark lines with bold colors which is makes style perfect for where I first found her work. I first saw her work in the Black Canary book in 2017. Eventually, I will talk about Marvel comic book artists, but not today. If you want to check out more of her work, here is her website:  https://www.anniewuart.com/
