13th Annual Palo Alto Weekly Photo Contest
"Caribbean Cubism" About Bill Blankenburg
"I had been breaking pictures down into multiple photos," said
Blankenburg, who had previously experimented with Hockney's style.
Blankenburg then reassembled
the pieces. He took approximately two dozen digital photos from the deck of the ship. By
photographing the same area at different times of day, he gathered the various
aspects of the setting. Once he had hard copies, Blankenburg reassembled the
pictures and used Photoshop to manipulate the work. "It's not quite a collage, but not quite anything else either," Blankenburg
said. --Jaime Marconette |
