One Point Perspective and Value

1) first glance at the pic and i noticed that my dorm hallway was kinda dark at night ... but the brightly colored circles on the wall make it a happy hallway ... cough cough ... definitely makes it different ... with me sitting at the doorway looking down the hall i noticed that the hallway looks almost endless.

2) standing at the entrance there is a long white hallway with different colored dots and every other light is turned off.

3) straight horizontal and vertical lines ... bright and bold colors on the wall and door jams ... dark shadows further down the hall

4) if the walls could talk they would tell you a story of the ages ... how peoples attitudes have changed, the change of clothes, hair and music ... if the walls could talk they would tell you secrets that people keep from others in the world ... what people expect to do with their lives and how they manage to succeed in life ... if only the walls could talk.

5) Edward Ruscha’s drawings and mine have a similar perspective, some of his are in one point and others two and three ... my picture is a straight shot of a dormitory hall way while his is of several angles ... my picture almost seems boring while his looks as though it is jumping off the page ... or a hole that will suck you into it.
