How is the viewer experiencing and making a connection to the art.


Do we want to make a connection with the viewer through expressing our experience of the landscape? We can relate to a human experience even in a foreign place.


Do we want to draw off the idea that people have knowledge and are aware of nature however some cannot access or go to these places. Therefore they have an appreciation of art and photographs capturing nature they cannot go and see for themselves.

People want to feel things. Experience things. Feel like they are part of something. How as an artist can we provide this through art. We want to give the viewer something they can take away and remember.
Experiences we usually remember are one where our emotions are heightened and our reactions are extreme whether positive or negative.

WORKING WITH PAINTING AND PHOTOGRAPHY.

Photography is capturing an image (fleeting moment) of reality.
Painting is capturing an artists perspective of reality.
