Week Ten Highlight

I met Phillip Toledano in New York last week and thouht his talk was amazing. I thought he told us so much to do with ourselves and that we should go with whatever feels right with us. I thought it really inspired me.

He talked about a new project he was doing on different beauty and i thought they were really good. I loved how he talked about making his images similar to 18th century dutch paintings.

Week Nine Highlight

I saw Joyce Tenneson's work in a 'The Polaroid Book' and loved her work instantly. I say it thinking that they looked so delicate and soft which gave them a painterly feel to them. This image is one of many examples. i really love her use of portraiture, making the women look classically beautiful. I would love to be able to create the same effect in my images.
