William Wegman #2

William Wegman 

Wegman is from Massachusetts and graduated from Massachusetts College of Arts Boston with a B.F.A then he continued his education at University of Illinois with a M.F.A. 

 

From his website it looks like he began his works around 1975 and hasn't stopped since. He has a variety of works from paintings to prints to Polaroids.  

 

 

His work is very different and sometimes be abstract I love that his work involves his dogs. They are so well behaved compared to my dog at least!  For our homage I chose to do him so I am excited to see how well my dog will behave. This should be interesting to say the least.

Murad Osmann is from Russia and started doing photography in 2011. His work got noticed when he did a series of photos of him following his girlfriends lead. 

 

 

He called these his "follow me" series of photos. With his bright colors and beautiful scenery his pictures blew up all over social media sites like tumbler and Instagram.  
 

This is one of his more famous ones because he proposed to his girlfriend in the picture.
