The Camera as My Canvas & the Knowledge of Lighting as My Brush
Updated: Jan 28, 2020

What! The Camera as my canvas and the knowledge of lighting as my brush? First of all, I would like to welcome you to my very first blog. Now, what does a camera have to do with a canvas and knowledge of lighting with a brush? Imagine an artist creating an oil painting on canvas. Just like an artist, my knowledge of lighting will be my paint and my brush that will be reflected on the image produce by my camera which is my canvas. With that, I can create all my masterpieces in the world of photography. My background in fine arts, helps capture and create my works of art by always pushing myself beyond the horizon of creativity. Prior to becoming a professional photographer, I used to express my works of art on canvas or on paper with the aid of a brush, watercolour, oil paint, charcoal, conté crayon and many more. But nowadays, a camera is my primary choice to express my art.
Did you know that many artists before the invention of the modern camera developed a technique in accurately depicting the images they are trying to recreate by using a camera obscura box? To further elaborate about "camera obscura", here is a link to a five minute video clip by Cooperative of Photography (COOPH) titled "The History of Photography" that you might find interesting.
