Art is everywhere.

Question: Why do people make art?

Answer: They just do.
Everyone has a different reason for making art. It varies from person to person. If you ask someone, it might be because they're bored, or they have too many emotions, or they "feel" it, etc etc etc. Plenty of people make art, and plenty of them have different reasons for it. Personally, I try to, because I love to. It feels good. I know there's a lot of beauty in the world, and if I can make other people realize it, that's great.

"You look like you're creative." (The non-Amandah-attacked version)

The question is: Is art only something you can see?

Answer: No. Art isn't solely reserved to being seen and marveled at. It isn't just aspects of lighting and the rule of thirds, or film and digital. It isn't reserved to portraits and paintings, or sketches and etchings.

Art is something you feel.

Art is anything that can evoke an emotion in you, that can change the way you think or something that can make you feel. Art is in music, in drawings, in pictures, and in life itself. If you can feel it, it's art. If you can love it, it's art. If you can think about it, again and again, and feel some sort of emotion stored in your being because of it, then it is undoubtedly art. Art, to me, is the world. It's everything I've ever seen, felt, heard, experienced. That could be a good explanation. Art is just something you have to experience. And when it's art, you'll know.

Imperfection

I've had a sudden epiphany to use as inspiration. Nothing is ever perfect. The world is filled to the brim with imperfections. So now that I've acknowledged that, I am going to photograph some of these various imperfections, and I am going to make them beautiful. Things are broken, flawed, damaged, labeled "incorrect" or "useless." Many things are imperfect. It doesn't mean you can't use them, and it doesn't mean they can't be beautiful. I'm determined to prove it.

Closet Diving

I've been exploring my house lately, and the more I explore the more I find. My father's old camera was hidden high up in a closet, with film still in it and a working battery. I'm curious what's going to be on the film, so I'm going to use the remainder and then go develope it (:
I also found my mother's Minolta and an old video camera. Fun times in the dusty portions of the Cappuccio household closet.

Inspiration via Motion Picture

Last night I happened to watch The Blair Witch Project. I know that seems completely unimportant, but during one scene in the movie the camera is pointed at the trees as the sun is going down, and you can barely see the sun peeking through two of the trees. It was in black and white too. I'd love to be able to capture a photo like that. Maybe I can try sometime for any upcoming project.
I've also been looking at pictures taken with a Holga camera. I think I want one...
