Ideas for wrapping assignment

As we talked about, I think I will play on the idea of contrasting items. So one wrapped amongst many that or not, or possibly a single object only half wrapped. I was inspired by your (Ms.Kunt'z) idea of the shelf of glasses. I can see that image quite clearly in my head. I think I will do a series of images along that line. My first idea is for a fruit bowl (or plate, depending on what photographs the best) and wrapping one, probably a distictively shaped fruit like a banana or pear. Also, one the idea of fruit, maybe fruit completely wrapped then cut in half, or one half wrapped and cut. If I start with fruit, I would most likely continue the series with fruit or food.
I was also thinking about accessories, like bracelets or glasses, and carrying out the same idea concepts.

Assignment #15

David Hockney is an English artist known for his work with photography and painting. He was born in 1937 during a wartime in England, yet lived well and received a good education. He went to numerous art schools during his education including the Bradford School of Art. He was born with synesthesia, causing him to see synthetic colors as a response to musical stimuli, and his influenced his work.
For this assignment we were asked to observe and analyze his style of photography where he pieces many pictures of a section of an image from different perspectives to create the whole image. He would often use a Polaroid and piece the pictures together physically, but for this assignment we did it digitally on Photoshop


my take on Hockney's style
