WEEK 4 - Rubí Danielle - TEXTURE - The Substance of Halloween

I absolutely love Halloween and all of the artistic inspiration that comes with it. In this photo, I captured lighting that revealed texture as well as beautiful colors. The clouds were strong on this night, giving the sky weight and shape. There is more than just flat lighting over the night sky. There is also the three dimensional quality that the clouds are giving the sky. I want to reach out and touch the clouds and their surface. The lighting that you see over the front door of the house, also provides a three dimensional quality and texture as well. The neon pink accents over the purple lighting, look like scrapes and scratches across the door. Instead of it looking like a flat clean door, the neon pink accents add a rough surface quality. It reminds me of the way boulders and rocks look, it provides a similar feel and look. Halloween is a holiday with great depth, substance, and emotion, as many see it as a time to connect with the spiritual realm. This picture captures both the dark and bright side of the spooky season, and provides us with an image that we not only want to look at, but that we also want to reach out and touch.
