26- Take an image that screams “Colour & Light”. Post it on your journal for next week. Comment on another student’s posting on both their journal and


For this week we were asked to find an image that screams colour and light. I started thinking about what I should present, and searching the work of famous artists to figure out what they wanted to show using light and colour. But I did not want to simply put images with colourful lights or even put the interpretation of the artist for his painting. While I was looking at several images I found this picture of stain glass, without knowing who made it, which I believe completes the requirements I had in mind because it clearly combines the light with colour. The colours of the glass pieces are simply enhanced even more as a result of the light passing through the glass instead of reflecting on it.

Very nice subject, I think stain glass is a great idea. There is an inseparable relationship between them that is unlike any other I know of. Also this is a good example. Some stain glass windows do not always consist of lots of colour. Nice one!

I like it. Why not take an image of your own also? Doing so might provide a practical experience of some of the problems
