David+Hockney+Joiners+Project

=**David Hockney Joiner Project** = David Hockney, best known for his paintings, did some work with photographs he called "joiners". "Joiners" is a method of taking many photographs, or the individual parts, of a subject and piecing the prints together to recreate the scene or person. Our goal is to find an interesting landscape; someplace that has alot of character and says something about ourself through what is shown. Assignment:
 * View the David Hockney Powerpoint and write a response to it in the discussion section of this page.
 * Your reaction should discuss what you like about his work and what you don't like.
 * 60 words


 * Chose a subject that has personal meaning to you.
 * At least 24 pictures/images
 * Use multiple angles to capture all the views and angles of the subject
 * if there is something in particular that you would like to especially draw out make sure you capture the features that you like about that subject
 * for instance, if you like your mom's eyes make sure you capture the nuances of her eyes at different angles to highlight those features


 * There will be a very abstract feel to the image, it will be very cubist and modern
 * don't worry about getting everything to fit perfectly, they won't
