Wonderful Painting

Mark Rothko

Here is a painting by Mark Rothko. I saw one of his paintings in the film Following by Christopher Nolan. I didn't understand what was so great about it, but in reality its freaking huge.

Short Film "The Journal"

This is a short film that i wrote, filmed, directed, and scored.

Cast: Hannah Waid as Female Ben Watson as Male

Further Analysis:
This film is about reading someone else's journal. It was filmed in black and white to give the feeling of reading a page of a written journal. Black pen on white paper. The non linear flow and segmented sections are meant to be abrupt yet descriptive. This is to also signify a journal. If you had found someone else's journal, it wouldn't be explained, and it might sound a little creepy. The orange falling of the table is a metaphor for the following action. The male following the female is meant to represent a love. I descriptive love from a distance. As if the female were being followed as shown in the film. This was completely an art piece that was written from a journal I had been keeping. Please enjoy.

Film by the band Noah and The Whale.

This Side Of Paradise

Good quotes:
"...at fifteen you had the radiance of early morning, at twenty you will begin to have the melancholy brilliance of the moon, and when you are my age you will give out, as i do, the genial golden warmth of 4 p.m."

"Sacrifice by its very nature was arrogant and impersonal; sacrifice should be eternally supercilious."

"All life was transmitted into terms of their love, all experience, all desire, all ambitions, were nullified-- their senses of humor crawled into corners to sleep; their former love-affairs seemed faintly laughable and scarcely regretted juvenalia"

Diego Velazquez
"Las Meninas"

Creative Writing

I have some stories i have been working on in creative writing. I think ill post some of them on here soon. Also i have some poetry i would like to put up. Ill continue to put of photography.
Its important to me for this blog to incorporate every bit of art. I think as a human that no matter what you're good at, you should always seek newer and different ways to express parts of you're character through art.
