Emotional


What do you see? In the picture, I see a girl and a boy sitting on a bench. The guy is playing his guitar and the girl is listening to him. The expression of the guy seems like he's embarassed but he is happy that the girl is there to hear him play. The girl seems like she's shy but yet she also looks like she adores listening to the guy play. The image itself is very figurative, illustrating how today's relationship between a guy and a girl could or should be.

How is the work organized? The work is organized with the shapes being identifiable. The people are concepts that's easy to spot, as well as the guitar, bench, and trees in the background. The image is focused and is in shallow depth of field, so it is only focused on the girl and the boy. This was done intentionally so that the subjects are focused and the viewers can put their attention on the girl and the boy.

What is the artist trying to communicate? The image, which was taken outdoors, is both dark and light, with areas that are darker than others. It shows the contrast between the background and the subjects (the models and guitar). The image portrays the sweetness between two people that like each other.

What do you think of the work? The image was successful and I like how it turned out how it was supposed to be. Even though there are a couple of changes I would have made, like capturing just the bottom part of the girl and the boy, the image is still good, in a sense that it still illustrates the concept that I was trying to communicate, which is the relationship between the girl and the boy.
