Elliott Erwitt – Most Popular Photographs
Elliott Erwitt is an American documentary photographer who is very well known for his satirical humor and wit, coming from all his ironic images. Moreover, he says, about his work, the most important thing is to see things and to have the ability to organize them in a picture. The trick is to react with humanity and a sense of humor combined, and hopefully, this will happen spontaneously. One of his biggest inspirations is dogs. We can see them in most of his images in different aspects. They are even a leading subject in five of his books. No matter what his work represents, realistic or surreal situations, monotonous or fanciful people, they are all unique and give joy to the eye or deep thoughts to the mind. Let's learn more about Elliott Erwitt's life and look at his most famous and iconic photographs of all time.

The Stories Behind my Top 10 Photographs of Children
There's something extremely rewarding about photographing children. For me, every photograph I take of a child is like reliving a part of my childhood again. Not many subjects draw the attention of viewers like the curious eyes and the unadulterated smiles of little children.

New Challenges and New Ideas
With every image that is captured it always leaves a lasting mark that people can hold onto for generations to come. Over the course of time, we have seen countless photographs and paintings that have always been redesigned and tweaked. In which it inspires artists to almost redesign it from their perspective and almost highlight it to entice viewers back to want to pay homage to the original pieces that we all know and love. Which transforms the art and photographs into something that is new, fun, and exciting. It is this sense of creativity and imagination that inspires me to do this with other peoples’ photographs and my own. I get a chance to see how they look from my perspective, and I get to express myself more by adding my own personal flare.

Rock. Paper. Scissors.
The original inspiration for my artwork series: Rock. Paper. Scissors. are the intricate Chinese paper cuts that my mother would create during Chinese new year called chuāng huā. As a child I would watch her meticulously cut traditional Chinese designs using her tiny pair of scissors. She would make designs including zodiac animals, flowers and Chinese characters arranged within a highly patterned background. These intricate paper cuts would be hung in the window to catch the sunlight and create beautiful dappled shadow patterns. Throughout history, many different cultures have their own version of paper cut folk art customs similar to this such as papel picado in Mexico or scherenschnitt in Germany & Switzerland. I wanted to create patterns of my own like my mother created but with organic and natural shapes that I am familiar with in my contemporary life.
