The Shul-22x28 oil on linen by Oleg Tsank.jpg
Raul Jarquin commented on Mcfly5781's submission image in Art
Hello Mcfly5781, You may consider uploading larger images for your album. Ideally, they should fit in a 1200 pixels wide by 800 pixels high container. A larger size would also work. Let us know if you need assistance preparing images. Raul -
Love this series and I am looking forward to seeing more of it. -
Handmade photography book
Images added to a submission album owned by Raul Jarquin in Art / Photo Books
Photography competes with many art forms, but when it uses the book as a way to manage the viewers experience it stands out. A photo book becomes much more than the the sum of its parts. Every page provides new opportunities to morph the viewers experience. Like music, it can go in-crescendo, have overtures, moments of silence and more. As the pages flow the contents of the book create their own theater for the imagination. Holding a book, especially a hand made book makes the viewer feel like they are front row. -

Spring brings a variety of birds to the coastal areas of Maine. I await their arrival every year with my camera in hand. Photographing birds in a manner that is more than just a good portrait in good light or a good execution of the camera autofocus or tracking technique is a challenge. I am interested in bird images that give a little more context. I struggle with this subject matter and I am hoping to have a few "keepers" this year.

My friend Felix Bernardino passed away recently. He left behind 1000s of drawings of the buildings of his home town, San Lorenzo de El Escorial (Spain). One day, I saw him sitting at a restaurant, drawing as usual. He said, "come sit down and join me for a beer." He was 95.

the smell of old books
Raul Jarquin replied to krisko1210's topic in Art & Photo Books, handmade Books...
Hello Krisko, I enjoyed going through the book of portraits in the 2020 folder . The simplicity and minimalist Japanese side stitch binding works very well in complementing the patina of old books and also as way to welcome imperfections caused by age and use with an approach that does not try to be perfect. I need to go through your other folders as I see you have many other altered book concepts. In the future you may consider adding an image with your post. It may help raise interest. I am including an image of an altered book with Polaroids. Welcome to CollexArt.
