pnital 36 Posted January 24, 2008 It is a new series of images, I hope to develop, starting to work with musicians as well as continue with the dance groups. I have met an artist, which is a builder of mandolin and guitars, visiting his workshop. He is internationally known , it was an unusaul experience to see how the tools for music are starting from the begining. His workshope is a realm of working and music instruments in diferent stages of work, each is a unique music piece. The tones of the strings are rich and warm. I will upload some of this visual richness. A small part of a corner in the artist's AK workshope.( he does not want his name mentioned.) Thanks for your impressions. Link to comment
m_akin 2 Posted January 24, 2008 very good composition and light..I think it will be excellent series...congrats Link to comment
je.barreto1 0 Posted January 24, 2008 Well, Pnina, in this photo everything breathes closeness, privacy! And I also noticed the soft "smell" of the environments of the creative people. Apparently everything is in its place, very well arranged! Perhaps the creator of guitars lives its creation in a calm mood, something angelical. I like this quiet and charismatic photo. Best regards. Link to comment
bosshogg 4 Posted January 24, 2008 It does have a quiet atmosphere to it, and warmth with the yellowish cast. Yet there is a certain precision here, with the ruler, and the straight up business like manner of the pencils and the neatly stacked boxes. The picture of the painting I presume pretty much sums up the man's feelings toward his instruments. Nice work. Link to comment
pnital 36 Posted January 24, 2008 Mehmet, Thanks I hope you will enjoy it. Jose and David, the man "lives" his work. It is amazing how many tools are needed for this work, it NEEDS order, if not chaos is inevitable.( look at the second image at the end of my introduction) The creation of a guitar or a mandolin is a very slow process with many many different actions. I liked the angel playing photo , amid all the working tools.The man loves his work. The instruments are beautiful with a special warm rich music tones.Thank you both. Link to comment
aepelbacher 0 Posted January 24, 2008 Oh! I'm absolutely totally excited about this new series, Pnina! These are the types of shots I would hang on my wall! I really like this a lot. If I were going to be nit-picky, I might say that I don't like the black ruler (top left), but it's trivial. Nice work! (Looking forward to more!!) Link to comment
jeffl7 0 Posted January 24, 2008 These are so deft. Art and a snapshot of the muse. Everything is so delicately balanced. Exquisite. Link to comment
Jack McRitchie 150 Posted January 24, 2008 Very nice contrast between the baroque print and the more geometric collection of pencils and brushes. The muse and the instruments; the artist has taken the picture and the resulting image is the art. And finally, the viewer is here to comment. So you see, the process is complete. Link to comment
janusz taras 0 Posted January 25, 2008 Angel -Music Muze....beautiful title.Warm regards, Link to comment
pnital 36 Posted January 25, 2008 Lou Ann, thanks, I was a whole morning in this man's workshop, what a delight to see his work, the precision, concentration, and tools needed for creating a music instrument. In the middle of all the tools the angel was the poetic point added to the rich warm tones of the cords. Imo, the ruler is ballancing nicely the composition , of course a personal taste. Jeff, thanks, I liked the angel, a poetic approach of the man to his work. Jack, you always have such a nice way to sum your impressions, thanks for your way of wording your feedback. Janusz, thanks for your warm feedback. Link to comment
adan1 0 Posted January 25, 2008 It's genial Pnina. This picture in powerful in conveying something personal and passionate. The colors are magnificent and I feel like I am witnessing the birth of creativity. Link to comment
rogerleekam 0 Posted January 25, 2008 Pnina, a very interesting idea but for me this image has too many elements competing for attention. My eyes dance back and forth without direction. I do like the light and color very much. Link to comment
pnital 36 Posted January 25, 2008 Thanks both of you for expressing your point of view. Roger, if you look at the second image under the original one, you will notice how small the angel print is ,on the working table. I understand your point but my eye was drawn to the angel first, but without the context around it, it would have been a small nice print , no more imo. Adan, his work is a "hand made" creation, needs a lot of practice, thought , concentration and presicion, but this small print on his table (and my conversation with him) conveyed the poetic point of how he feels the ART of his work. Thanks. Link to comment

amalsircar 2 Posted January 26, 2008 WOW! It is said "All Arts aspires for the condition of Music". Music has a direct and soul stirring effect. Your images inspires me and I can hear melody in this composition. Link to comment
janusz1 0 Posted January 26, 2008 Very promissing prelude :) I can see how you find it likeable... it so conforms to your style.. Clean, well organized and with essence. This no-nonsense "small frame" captures man's soul. To me it is a portrait :) Link to comment
