Inspiration
While researching her work I really got inspired as how she potrayed the images using just black and white color due to which I decided to use her style in all of my Se7en Deadly Sins as a theme.Below is the Image of Warth.
Jane Bown
JANE BOWN 1925 - Present
Jane Bown claims she became a photographer almost by accident – she took it up at the end of the Second World War after leaving the Wrens.
Her signature style of using black and white color in all her images and her style of capturing her images with out any form of studio lightinig facinated me the most while researching her works.
Jane Bown's first published photograph, a portrait of Bertrand Russell, appeared in The Observer in January 1949. It was the start of a symbiotic association with Britain's oldest Sunday newspaper which is still going strong today. Her photographs have never gone out of fashion and her influence shines through the paper.
She works without any form of studio lighting, only using whatever natural light there is available at the time, shooting with very simple equipment and always in black and white. I like the fact how she capturs the potrait image of people in her signature black and white style and represent the emotions, actions, humanity in all her subjects.
All her images show a great understanding of her subjects and she has that unique ability to capture them in a very natural way. She has captured the flaws, strengths and humanity in all her subjects. Below in the video shows few of the master pieces of jane bown.
