teenLook #8 - March 2020 - Faith Noble Cover

Fine art, in the true definition, is very
important to me as a photographer. The
term has been diluted horribly by the
novice and facebook photographers who
feel that fine art means naked women.
Fine art can be defined as a visual art
considered to have been created primarily
for aesthetic purposes and judged for its
beauty and meaningfulness, specifically,
painting, sculpture, drawing, watercolour,
graphics, and architecture. Unfortunately,
in the photography world, fine art
has been forced into a new and wildly
unethical direction. I think that creating
something before the photo is even taken
is fine art.
what does
Fine Art
mean to me?
My future in photojournalism? That is a
loaded question. With a little over six years
left until I can retire from my dreaded
day job and tackle this full time, I am not
sure. I honestly would love to be travelling
the country and the world shooting with
other amazingly talented artists and
creating some really eye-catching and
lasting works of art. I think it would be
pretty groovy to be the photographer to
the stars and work with major magazines
and news outlets.
