Michael Kenna

Michael Kenna was a monochromatic landscape photographer. He was an artist who knew how to shot photos like this at night and at dawn with ethereal light. Michael is a type of person to go to a landscape area and take what he gets just by looking at it. 

I find this picture that Michael Kenna took to be beautiful. The way the shadows and the negative space compliments the sky is what makes it beautiful to me. The way the clouds are positioned in the sky, kind of gives a perspective view. The clouds points more towards the center. Michael Kenna is a photographer who can help with my understanding towards shadows in a photo when capturing it.

This makes the rose on the wall look like it is outside in a spring or summer area with the sun shinning brightly. This photo also gives out good vibes because of the color and style that the reflection of the gold rose

He studied at Philadelphia Museum School for Industrial Art for two years in the 1930s. Around the 1950s, he opened his own art studio, which had made him grow more popular over time. His work on Still Life was more of it being abstract because of the volumes and lines of the objects. Most of his art work is being shown in museums in the United States and Europe. This photo was chosen because it reminds me of how Still Life could just be anything. But you could make a bigger image out of what was used. For this one, it shows me tea time while playing a game, but for rich folks. His other Still Life's like this also have a meaning behind them. But when he uses objects to make a Still Life that isn't like this, it turns into an objects. For example, his other type of Stil
