Back In The Day
I was a traveler, leaving home to explore at an early age. One day I was stop by a small town to grab something to eat, since I was hungry, apparently the food was undercooked, so I went to throw up in the nearest can. Surprisingly, there was a photographer there and before I upchucked, I told the man "Hey! When I'm done with this, take a picture of me so I can remind myself to never eat at that garbage they call a restaurant."

Inspiration [Week 9]│Bob Ross
I remembered being 3 or 4 when I watched the Joy of Painting on PBS, seeing the man himself, Bob Ross with calm, soothing voice, array of paint supplies, and his signature afro. Whether you are young, old, a novice or a professional, you will always enjoy the work of this great man and what he did for many people. May his skills live and pass on to many aspiring artists out there.

- My favorite part of this assignment was taking shot of subjects that I usually seen everyday and display them in a photogenic style.
- My favorites are Images: #3 (Phone w/ Bluetooth earbuds), #5 (Jack o' Lanterns), #6 (Stop sign), #10 (Gang tags behind a sign), #15 (Neon light Chargers sign), #19 (Americanfence.com sign)
- The challenging part was find subjects during the time of night; Rewarding was using flash in that time to create a nice feel for these subjects.
- Mostly and only the Depth of Field.
- I want to say Image #19 because of how empty everything is, and what's left is only the sign and fence, in a black field.

Inspiration [Week 7]│Hirohiko Araki
The artist that I will talk about this week is Japanese Manga Artist Hirohiko Araki. In 1980 with his one-shot Poker Under Arms, and began his professional career with the short series Cool Shock B.T., Baoh, and The Gorgeous Irene. But the one which I will be focusing the most is his longest running series Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. Why I choose this is because of Araki's art style that he has developed over the years having more and more of a realism look with superb detail on clothing. Another would be his color palette, when looking at his work in color, Araki tends to use more unusual colors, from inspirations such as Paul Gauguin, in one his pieces: Cavaliers Sur La Plage. Whether is you appreciate it not, Araki's art style is very pleasing in the long run, with its detail and color.
