DESCRIPTION
Leaving an imprint is at the heart of being human...
Citation preview
Any creation inscribes itself in the world we live in.Even if you erase it .. It may survive for long....
if inscribed in people’s minds. As the next picture, that conveys a vison of a peaceful nature.
Or an extremely photoshop altered nature photo.....
In a sense, they are inscriptions.....like the abstract painting that you will see next....
Even an abstract painting can tell something about the human who did it...it can
carry aesthetic or emotional content, even if devoid of specific meaning.
The next one is painting of the late 19th century, by Edouard Doigneau, in the Romantic style.
Here arabs are depicted as adventurous and freeto roam the desert, more close to nature than the
average westerner. What we have here is a vision of a foreign land as a
escape from a somewhat limited existence. This would of course change in our times so that today it could
convey a sense of a terrorist threat...
Photography also has the same power to induce an emotional mood than paintings... In the next picture an
eerie, melancholic mood is evoked, with very simple image elements.
So remember...anytime you create something that reflects something about you and the way you see the world, and if it then can influence, intrigue or interest
other people, you have left your imprint!
That’s it! Now go and create something!A simple drawing will do!
Leave your imprint!
