| This is Chuck Close!! |
Chuck Close his real name is Charles Thomas
Close a photographer and photorealist and painter that was born on July 5th
1940 an American . When looking at the photos that he is done his
self-portraits he did portrait painting based on his photography’s. I have
noticed that he builds is images applying it one after the other in
multi-colors or gray scale. Also he used photography as a tool obtaining images
however his attraction detailed images which led him to employ larger images
format cameras with his painting he showed part of the image in focus or sharp
using the visual element such as shape textures, volume, shadows and highlights
of the photograph itself.His photographs are empyazing the areas of
the face which controls the likeness off the photograph. Chuckle close
transferring the photo on to a canvas as far as blurring out Chuckle close
quotes that he said was that “ some people wonder whether what I do is inspired
by a computer and whether or not that kind of imaging is apart of what makes
this work contemporary I absolutely hate technology and I’m computer illiterate
and I never use any labor saving devices although I’m not convinced that a
computer is a labor saving device”. It just amazing work that Chuck Close has
done with the painting that he has done from the photographs the he has done I
love the way he has portrayed that on to a canvas the detail and the blurred
effect on the painting it is unique to any other photographer than I have
seen. His first piece of work that he
ever did was in fact the photo of Philip
glass was included black and white done in 1969.
