Influential Artists for Final Project

Chris Crawford Photography

Alright. Click the above link to see photos from Chris Crawford's Forgotten Indiana series from whom I take much of my influence from for the series for my final project. He traveled in some of his favorite areas of Indiana where he is from, and photographed forgotten/abandoned/neglected areas that he knew had never been photographed before.

Lost America - Travis Paiva

If you check this guy out, you'll find some of what I'm looking for but not quite the exact same thing. He focuses on the eventually demise of some communities and areas of the west that were created in the 20th century and abandoned.

John Thomas Grant Photography

And this guy. We're kinda close on this one too. While he takes photos of gravestones that are rather nice and taken care of, there are a some of there that are more decayed and that's what I'll be looking for when it comes to gravestones. Check "Cherub with Wreath" for the idea.
