like a white sheet..... a blank paper....
and in this case my bed :)
shot for ODC - minimalism - but i was to late due to studie and work :)
Also Ecolog 13...
white sheets or bed linnen us up a lot of cotton.
The production of Cotton is usually not very sustainable:
Cotton is considered the world's 'dirtiest' crop due to its heavy use of insecticides, the most hazardous pesticide to human and animal health. Cotton covers 2.5% of the world's cultivated land yet uses 16% of the world's insecticides, more than any other single major crop
www.ota.com/organic/environment/cotton_environment.html
There is organic cotton available now, and it is more easy to buy now. I saw eco jeans in my jeans shot lately, and they are even a cheaper then some of the famous brands.
i haven't gathered the courage to learn how to do human portraits yet, so i'm practicing on more innocuous subjects (i.e. stuffed animals.) his name is kata. (you can also see 'pensive kata.')
advice/comments/crop suggestions welcome as always. i'm here to learn.

Minimalism in visual art, sometimes referred to as "literalist art"[3] and "ABC Art"[4] emerged in New York in the 1960s. It is regarded as a reaction against the painterly forms of Abstract Expressionism as well as the discourse, institutions and ideologies that supported it. As artist and critic Thomas Lawson noted in his 1977 catalog essay Last Exit: Painting, minimalism did not reject Clement Greenberg's claims about Modernist Painting's reduction to surface and materials so much as take his claims literally. Minimalism was the result, even though the term "minimalism" was not generally embraced by the artists associated with it, and many practitioners of art designated minimalist by critics did not identify it as a movement as such.
In contrast to the Abstract Expressionists, Minimalists were influenced by composer John Cage, poet William Carlos Williams, and architect Frederick Law Olmsted. They very explicitly stated that their art was not self-expression, in opposition to the previous decade's Abstract Expressionists. In general, Minimalism's features included: geometric, often cubic forms purged of all metaphor, equality of parts, repetition, neutral surfaces, and industrial materials.
Robert Morris, an influential theorist and artist, wrote a three part essay, "Notes on Sculpture 1-3," originally published across three issues of Artforum in 1966. In these essays, Morris attempted to define a conceptual framework and formal elements for himself and one that would embrace the practices of his contemporaries. These essays paid great attention to the idea of the gestalt- "parts... bound together in such a way that they create a maximum resistance to perceptual separation." Morris later described an art represented by a "marked lateral spread and no regularized units or symmetrical intervals..." in "Notes on Sculpture 4: Beyond Objects," originally published in Artforum, 1969, continuing to say that "indeterminacy of arrangement of parts is a literal aspect of the physical existence of the thing.” The general shift in theory of which this essay is an expression suggests the transitions into what would later be referred to as Post-Minimalism.
Minimalism /ˈmɪnɪm(ə)lˌɪz(ə)m/ describes movements in various forms of art and design, especially visual art and music, where the work is set out to expose the essence, essentials or identity of a subject through eliminating all non-essential forms, features or concepts.

In the play of light and shadow stillness tells a story decay meets growth and beauty lingers in neglect

1920 by 1080. This is the most simplistic one I have done today but I rather like it. I have always loved Phoenix and Jean Grey so this one is a little personal fun.
