  3. Quote 1: “The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls.”
    ~Pablo Picasso

    This quote makes me think of one of me old drawings and how it showed what i was feeling. Another idea i had was have a person draw what they are feeling and tale a photo of that person drawing.

    Quote 2: “No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.”
    ~Buddha

    The idea i had for this one i was thinking i could take a picture of a person walking down a pathway towards the light or a person choosing which way they should go. Left or right on a split of a pathway.

    Quote 3: “It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light.”
    ~Aristotle Onassis

    A picture i think of for this photo is maybe to take a photo of a light a dark side to something and play with lighting and angles to an object to get the best photo I possibly can.

  4. Quote 1: “No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.” The idea I had for this quote is an object or character being focused by bright light to show the main focus point.

    Quote 2: “It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to the light.” The idea that I had for this quote is two images combined to make a dark side and a light side between an object. Being able to compare something completely opposite from what it is and trying to capture the definition of the image.

    Quote 3: “You don’t take a photograph, you make it.” The idea that I had for this picture is holding up a camera and taking a picture of the camera with a great background.

  5. “No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.”
    ~Buddha
    I see a person walking down a road with the camera faced at an angle while playing with the lighting.

  7. “Men must live and create. Live to the point of tears.” -Albert Camus

    “The world breaks everyone, and afterward, some are strong at the broken places.”-Ernest Hemingway
    (I am thinking of a man, his back to the camera, and a dark sky/maybe black and white filter, with his hands behind his head. Arms flexed).

    “No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.”
    -Buddha
    (I like the idea of having many people standing and moving in the background, and then having someone with a hoody sitting on the ground in the center).
    (I also like having someone seem as if they are climbing a mountain
    + and having an eager face, fighting and being strong to get to the safe top).

  8. One of the quotes I’m thinking of using is:“It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light.” Aristotle Onassis. I’m thinking of maybe an eye with a dilated pupil with the quote under it. Or maybe a shadow on the ground or the wall. The second is “The world breaks everyone, and afterward, some are strong at the broken places.” Ernest Hemingway. I’m thinking of a mended sidewalk or wall. A photo of a scar maybe. The third is “The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.” Aristotle. Find something significant to me (jewelry box, necklace, or a heart stone I got from my grandmother) and attempt to photograph it uniquely. I like the last two best so I will likely do those two.

  9. “It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.”
    E. E. Cummings

    “No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.”
