This week I chose artist Tealia Ellis Ritter. I found her personal bio intriguing and appreciate her thoughts behind the images that spurs her inspiration. She likes to photograph people when they are at their most vulnerable and captures the image when the subject least expects it. After she makes a portrait of someone, she asks them to write down their personal dreams. The photo of the young woman portrays her dream of realizing who she is. The young man on the bottom simply stated, "I'm not the type who dreams". Ms. Ritter captures both of these innermost feelings in a very poignant way. I also think Ms. Ritter's own genuine interest regarding the human condition shows in the photos. Her website is: http://tealiaellisritter.4ormat.com/home.html
