I don't want the paint to seep through and ruin my design.

And what kind of paint is best? gouache? acrylic paint? spraypaint?

For those of you that shoot Models, what do you do about their escorts??

Generally, I have no problem with escorts for safety, or even to assist the model in between sets for clothing/makeup touchups, etc..., but recently, I have had to ban "romantic" interests from shoots totally, and even require escorts to stay out of eyesight of the shoot. It just seems to be harder to get models to focus on the work, and stop socializing with there escort.

Hubby's/boyfriends have become a real nightmare too (even in casual clothing shoots), attempting to get involved in directing the shoot, and models looking to them all the time for approval. I recently cancelled 2 shoots after starting because of the interference.

Is it like this for everyone??

I know photography has alot of rules and whatnot, but what if I do not wish to follow any of them and just photograph with my own rules and techniques? Would I not be considered a photographer? would my pictures not be considered art? I am taking a photography class and theres rules that "should be followed", but while in class, I always say to myself, i dont want to do that or this. Any advice?

Who invented the ♥ symbol?

The actual shape and look of the human heart looks nothing like it. What is the background on the ♥ symbol / shape and who is credited as it's creator?

I'm doing a presentation at school on Art Deco (for my Product Design AS level class) and i need some help! I need a few different pieces that are considered the most "important" or things that are really famous. I've done the chrysler building. I also need a few major people in the design movement.

Also, any other info you think i should include that i wouldn't have already stumbled upon?

Thanks!

Place your mouse pointer over the image after viewing it
Both figures are the exact same size. The creature appears to increase in size as it gets further away due to 'perspective'.
Perspective is evoked in this image by the pattern, and the lines on the wall.

I understand what the skull symbolises but is there an additional meaning because it is wreathed in straw?

Like they're black and white photographs, but they have a coloured object somewhere in the photograph as well...for example, like this:

How do you make just part of the picture coloured?

Do you cut out (for example, like in Picture 1) just the ladybug from the original coloured photo and then add it to the now black and white photo with a new layer?

In china, what will happen if you get caught doing graffiti red-handed? What are the punishments you get? Are there different laws for those who are of different ages?

This photograph is one of two little kids,a boy and girl, taken from behind, they are walking from a garden arbour into the sunlight. They are nearly in silouette. Their clothing suggests 1940s or early 50s. If I remember the story properly, their father was a fairly famous World War II photographer. It may have been published in Life Magazine, but I am not sure about that. This photograph was his most requested photo. In his interview the photographer laughed about how he won awards for his war photos, but the people wanted the one of his children. I am not sure, but they MIGHT have been English. Does any one know what I am talking about? I used to see it a lot when I was a kid, but I haven't seen it in years. I want to use it in a presentation, but can't find a copy of it.

I'll be getting the Nikon D40x tomorrow, and as a first time DSLR user, I want the cheerdance competition of my sister to be my first "project". As much as possible I want to have good photographs.

I wonder, since cheerdances are mostly girls moving consistently (dancing), will the D40x capture objects/people in motion accurately without problems? Are there any settings I need to adjust in the camera?

Any advice would help!:)

I do a lot of abstract art most of it is digital - I got my Masters degree in Computer Graphics in 1989 an I"ve been doing digital art since, but only as a hobby - I did other things for work, and I'm looking into trying to do art full time. I'm trying to find out ways to get myself established.
I live in Central Wisconsin and my art really isn't appropriate for this area in that they really want nature,etc. and my stuff is more abstract - I'm open to ideas.
I'm looking for which art shows are the best for digital art and abstract art or both - thanks

thanks
