Artist Name : Georgie Grie
Title : ice age prmonition or infinite iceberg synthesizer
Date : 2007

Description : i think that this picture has the rule of thirds because its picture is right in the center where your suppose to look straight at where everything is commming from. theres always alot going on in his photos because he makes sure that theres always more meaning to more then one thing that can be different if there apart.
Analysis : this picture shows that thers darkness to pull you in mainly because of the backround but also its symmetrically vertical because everything around the subject is the same.
Interpretation : i think that this picture means when your at the bottom you always have to start small and when you go through the spiral stairs theres always going to be twists and turns in your life and when you get to thetop you accomplished something great and you get to see how beautiful life is.
Judgement : i think it came out successful in telling what they needed to say because you can clearly see what there saying in the picture.



Artist Name: Kurt Schwitters
Title : light Center
Date: 1919

Description : i think that this picture has many different dark and light colors to it to show different aspects especially since theres alot of bright colors in the middle and keeps going out darker and darker round it
Analysis : this picture shows that theres alot of illusions in it since it is a collage and was made out of many different things you can think of it as anything you want it to be not just one thing
Interpretation : i think that this picture means that life can be complicated but also confusing and frustrating at times
Judgement : i think that this picture as well came out successful because it makes you think in many different ways on what it really is and what it means but shows a sense of understanding because i think that my interpretation of it you can connect to it in a way


Digital VS Traditional - even though these are two very completely different pictures they do say alot about eachother in similiar ways especially about how life can be complicated but simple if you just get through it . i think that Geogie's picture is easier to understand since it is just a picture of one single thing but even looking at it you can see all the different obstacles he has put in it to show you that one thing can be many different things. In Kurt Schwitter's collage i really liked it because its all jumbled up into different pieces you cant really tell what it is but if you really look into it and the way that the colors are placed you can see what he was trying to tell you. i think that digital photos are easier to determine and explain and that traditional photos you have to take more of an intake to know what the person is trying to tell you.
