So somebody simply saying they are an artist may be in response to the mother-in-law telling them they make very nice photographs, and it doesn't make them an artist. But somebody who posts on the LUF photo forums (or a wider sphere) and gains a reputation for great work even though they may be an accountant in real life may well be considered artistic if the photographs are loved by other photographers. I was told by my art instructors I was a natural artist and persue this very seriously, which I didn’t…🥸 Edited January 24 by Anthony MD Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't look like a painting at all, would a painter have rendered such a flat sky or large foreground area of indistinct grey water? The distinction is the painter paints the whole of the canvas to balance the textures and colours, not just tweaks the colour balance and brightness of a photograph.

lct Posted January 24 Share #326 Posted January 24 Looks like a nice landscape shot with a digital M and the genious Summicron 50/2 v2. Keep the electric wires. A painter would have removed them i guess. Keep the moment. Just my 2 cents. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a image taken with the Leica MD 262, so you’re right! How would you assume what an artist plans in making his paintings? An artist paints according to his perceptions not according to yours. You seem to have a critical sense in evaluating art. So you’re are an accomplished artist?

And I have a BA Hons in Fine Art (Photography), etc. When in college, I studied Chinese paintings on my own. The school didn’t teach that, the college was in New York. I meat a affluent Chinese classmate that suggested I try Chinese paintings and to his surprise replied I was the only one in America that could do it! The same with oil painting, no one taught me but was considered a natural at that. I took a sculpture class and the teacher said after what I accomplished looked like a Brancusi, totally amazed saying also was a natural artist. Never learned photography either! So I consider my work artistic since I wasn’t taught photography but look at landscapes as if I were to paint it.

And I'm far from including myself in any category of competence because an artist leaves it to their peers to judge the work, they do not bestow accolades upon themselves, unlike yourself 🤣 Edited January 25 by 250swb 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony MD Posted January 25 Author Share #338 Posted January 25 (edited) I was told I was a natural artist by university professors.
