Karl Blossfeldt/Jake Muirhead Comparison

Karl Blossfeldt's work

 In comparison with Jake Muirhead's artwork, Karl Blossfeldt's work is refined and detailed despite the fact that the focuses of the work are similar.







Although the precision of the two artists' work are greatly different they both have similar colour schemes and focus points of the natural forms.

Both of these artists use inverse tones, they either use light backgrounds and shade dark tones into their drawings or prints or they use dark backgrounds with lighter shaded drawings or prints.

I took some photos of flowers in my garden that were influenced by Karl Blossfeldt's work as they were close up and you could see the detail in the flowers but I also took photos at different focus points to see if when I printed or drew them they had the same depth and effects.
