A Few Gold Records For A Portrait

Thursday, November 16, 2006 Concept/Objective:

The objective was a fairly fast and loose portrait of an executive for a client. We didn’t need to do anything especially elaborate.

Pre-Production:

We did a little moving around, but it was a small office, and so we opted to just bounce off the ceiling/wall.

Assignment:

We arrived, and as you can see from the wider image, we had a very busy person’s office to work in.  We set up one strobe, and focused on the subject, and used the back wall as an interesting backdrop, avoiding altogether the desk, which we couldn’t clean.

Post-Production:

Same day delivery of the selects was necessary, followed up with a CD.

Final Analysis:

I’ve known the subject for many years, and this was my first portrait of him. It was really my pleasure to make the photo, and I think the closeness of him, lens choice and so forth captures his jovial nature.

Many people opt for pendants that contain precious or semi-precious stones such as Onyx, Abalone and mother of Perl, there is also an increasing trend to use highly polished crystals and brands such as Swarovski have fully embraced this trend creating an entire industry around it.

I Saw the Figure 5 in Gold" is one of a series of eight abstract portraits of friends, inspired by Gertrude Stein's word-portraits, that Demuth made between 1924 and 1929. This painting pays homage to a poem by William Carlos Williams. Like Marsden Hartley's "Portrait of a German Officer" and Arthur Dove's "Ralph Dusenberry," this portrait consists not of a physical likeness of the artist's friend but of an accumulation of images associated with him — the poet's initials and the names "Bill" and "Carlos" that together form a portrait.
