Man Ray

I choose to research this artist because both of my models love his work.  This gives me insight to understand my models further who they are and maybe even further ideas into how to take there pictures.

QUOTES

"An original is a creation motivated by desire. Any reproduction of an originals motivated be necessity. It is marvelous that we are the only species that creates gratuitous forms. To create is divine, to reproduce is human."

"A creator needs only one enthusiast to justify him."

Both quotes by Man Ray
