Street art is a unique and colorful art form and can be found in all kinds of nooks and crannies in cities all over the world. Capturing art in the streets in photographs can be tricky because these urban art pieces are in public spaces, that are busy and usually filled with a decent amount of traffic. Sometimes you include the people and sometimes, you don't.

A list of the most influential street photographers of the past century."The essential attribute of street photography is chance - and that's likely why we're so drawn to it. Unlike documentary photographers, who wish to tell an overarching story of the subjects and places they capture, often for news publications, street photographers take photographs of fleeting moments that may exist outside of a greater narrative. Often, they are only meaningful for the single moment they capture.The street photographers of the world might envy photographers who take portraits or stage photo shoots. The latter group gets to control and create an image before taking it, which seems a hell of a lot easier than being able to get the perfect moment on camera as it occurs spontaneously. The street photographer has to wait for just the right moment to capture something worth shooting.The whole point of street photography is to capture happenstance - unplanned moments in public space. Often this involves humans sometimes doing funny things, like tripping or making strange expressions, but sometimes street photography just captures the photographer's surroundings. Although it can be similar to architectural photography, it doesn't have to focus on the structures in front of a lens. Instead, the focus of a street photograph is the composition of random objects coming together in a photographer's frame. The talented street photographer captures these chance happenings in a meaningful and engaging way. "

This is a painting of a picture taken by a friend's daughter. Both the horse and dog are hers. The horse is lying down was the explanation I was given for them being at eye level with each other. I had to ask this because I didn't know horses could lye down and I believed they slept standing up.

For a long time I didnt think i was particularly creative or good at art but ive always loved the idea of being able to draw or paint. I started off doing paint by numbers during Covid but wanted to learn to paint my own work so recently I started teaching myself to paint using Acrylics. I particularly love trees and so painted this one using black and white to allow me to highlight portions of shadow in the branches. I've only been painting for about 6 or 7 weeks so this is a very early atte

I really enjoy painting on black shuen paper. Since certain colors and washes do not show up very well, you really have to plan out your colors and markings. For this one, I used mostly dots in Chinese mineral blue and green and gold poster paint.
