Challange: Doukkane Abderrahmane Photography

Abderrahmane Doukkane, a young photographer who starts and who promises!
The “meaning” is impossible to measure and classify, but it can be expressed in photography. Abderrahmane Doukkane found in water and childhood inspiration and, through his works, sought to convey different values.

Walking through the rivers and the faces of children, the photographer can find a variety of topics, sometimes unusual and lots of light and color.

People and water …

Challange: Doukkane Abderrahmane Photography

Water is everywhere, we even have it.Tiny droplet of mist in the vastness of the oceans, it is life. All the more reason for Abderrahmane Doukkane tries to tame.

Water can not only become a market value. It is and must remain our common heritage of mankind.

With its images Abderrahmane Doukkane talent shows with his commitment and his vision of man.

The challenges and issues of water for him and for us, a global priority of development, like those of education.

The world of the rich and the surplus can not forget the shortage and poverty.

Abderrahmane Doukkane the child …

Challange: Doukkane Abderrahmane Photography

His photographs show the faces of children who have a strong personality emphasizing mature adult. The strong personality from the eyes is partly driven by the fact that the subject is assigned an adult role in society that it occupies.The faces that appear on prints show a dual adult-child, with a maturity in the eyes capita juvenile body.The features of the body are those of a child while the light emphasizes a personality forged in difficult living conditions.

Red Sand

This is the first photo in a series from one of my favourite collections of Toronto city shots. It is taken nearly standing in Lake Ontario at the Red Path sugar factory. The building looked like it hadn’t been used in quite some time so I didn’t think that anyone would mind if I took a personal tour. This photo wasn’t originally one of my favourites but my love for the picture came mostly post-production.

Considering art is an often sought career path, but many having a lack of funds to pay the bills in the end, this source is more than useful in order for any reader to further develop their creative skills. For no cost, just effort! Being a strong believer in using general life experiences for a strong form of learning and developing, I recommend reading this. Special thanks to Amber for taking her time to send me this link, for all of us to absorb and initiate!

Moosehead - $1000 - SOLD

This taxidermy(art of preparing and preserving the skins of animals and of stuffing and mounting them in lifelike form) -style moose head is carved out of white pine: approximately 36 inches wide, 31 inches tall and stands out from the wall 23 inches. It is then epoxied and painted with a finishing coat to protect the carving from the sun’s ultra violet rays. Perfect for someone who likes the cottage look and animals in their house or cottage, without killing an animal to do so.

$250

I carved a similar carving for my brother a few years ago. This time I decided to try and carve this one as fast as I possibly could with a chainsaw. I would say 97% chainsaw carved, I had to use other tools to get the heart shaped pupils and in his nostrils. It was a good learning experience for control and as well as fun!

Sad Green Man - SOLD

This sad green man is 18 inches tall carved out of white pine; perfect for a garden and a great treasure to find at the end of a trail.

Wine Glass - Walnut

This wooden wine glass was made on the lathe for a friend’s birthday.

$3500

I carved this sculpture in the winter, but I feel these pictures of it in the summer sun are much better.

And sometimes you just have to breath

Mind space, flat, and it will find you

All along it had you

See only those who wish

When air is reduced, When we come closer together

And who are they now

They is I and who is all

So take your time

Who and What and Where am I

To have a thought as such

Where I can be my own

My own can be my home

Away from home, Where I run

And only I will run

We and I will walk your way

If your way is our way

Then turn to truth you will, I will

I was

Why did I start this mayhem municipal..

I can always pretend what I can’t explain

My face has no face in front

And I don’t just want to know..

I just don’t want to know

Who and What and Where am I

To have a thought as such

Where I can be my own

My own can be my home

Away from home, Where I run

And only I will run

And yet the turn is around..

Apology found when choosing too often, pick too high, but there is no shield aside that will keep them gone for good.  And don’t I know it.  They want what they see and how ever can it appear subtle, when extremities linger so high.  And I can see right through this.  Don’t fail now or all effort lost.  The picture is seen and alive but what a large step for mankind.  Larger step for mine.  Don’t hate for what you see, it is all too complicated.  If I could only explain.  I wouldn’t.

To bring this presence, to give and own, would be exactly that.  And it’s alright.  Mine always stays where I left, awaiting return of stale receipts.  I got plenty.  This won’t give you what you wanted but maybe the way will become your want.  And all is fine. I find my self along the wide bridge and I will forever stand alone with my own.  I wish it was yesterday, tomorrow; I can pretend again and it all makes sense.  My lie is living me.  But I am not afraid.  I never am because I never can.  Tell me what is real for you and I will try to care more then I usually wouldn’t.  My self is my worry and I have none.  Who am I and what have I done to my world with my feelings, my thoughts.  What a question; A question I knew all along, the answer I choose to forget.

Please look at me and see I can only pity for so long until I might have to bring it back to you.  Again and it wont be the last encounter.  We will meet again.  I will know your name; I will never know your face.  Can not bear to recall, too fresh from the last to surpass the identity that is what I knew I would never know, anyway.  What is grown is done, I can see it, it is never far from sight.  I will try and find it, where the connection suits and I don’t need to be in that place again.  That place knows me too well, where the air tells me I am just like you.  And I know I am not, will not be like you.

Introduction to Adventure Number One:  Garden Sculpture in Bolton, ON

This was an interesting and very fun carving; the customers told me they like spirit faces, green man faces, flowers and birds.  At first I was going to carve a hawk out of the one forking branches flying by a nest, but we decided against it and the customers  told me to just  continue the theme  and get creative. The first day I carved part of the lower portion of the tree with leaf and spirit faces, followed by the first of three sunflowers and vines.

The second and third day was beautiful with not a cloud in the sky, I started with a woman face covered with leafs and five flowers. I filmed it in intervals for the first half of the carving then after a coffee break I forgot to turn the camera back on to film me finishing the face. I then moved on to a womens face where we got the idea from a fairy candle holder that was given to the customer from a close friend. When carving the other two sunflowers I really used the natural bulges and knots in the tree for direction and flow. Weaving the vines and leafs around the tree really gave it character and brought out the beautiful deep wood grain; they loved the raw natural look of the carving. Adding the tree frog proved to be a challenge because of the angles I had to carve it on, but it was well worth it to see how happy she was when it was finished!
