something i never would have done on my own

A couple weeks ago my digital arts professor asked the class to view the work of several photographers, I was so pleasantly surprised by how interested I was in all of the work, I've only ever taken the time to view famous drawings or paintings, because those are the mediums I've always worked in. I was surprised at how intricate and elaborate some of the artists scenes were, such as Gregory Crewdson. I didn't realize how interesting and thought provoking this kind of work could be because I had never taken time to check it out. I especially enjoyed viewing Crewdson's work, for me it was very reminiscent of Norman Rockwell's scenes, alot of detail and a story that you can conjure that correlates. I also enjoyed Cindy Sherman's work, they had a fun poppy vintage feel, a cross between something you'd see Audry Hepburn in and maybe a pinup from the fifties.
