Light Drawing and Long Exposure: David Lebe
For this project, the person I looked more into for Light drawing inspiration was David Lebe. David's black and white drawing images from 1979-1980 are primarily interesting to me compared to his older work as he began to integrate more into the composition of the images. I enjoy the implementation of backgrounds and scenic scenes that he includes in his drawings. Another aspect of his images that I enjoy is the attention to detail for smaller details, such as shirt creases and seams. This adds depth to the image and elevates it from a basic silhouette to a more detailed drawing. Looking at his light drawing images from 1982, they include more of the object rather than the outline of the figures that he did in his early works. His usage of long exposure allows for more details of the object to be seen. While there are some aspects of the darkness of his early work that I enjoy, I can appreciate the visuals of the objects that are seen in his later work.
