Scrapbook Entry #6 Magazine Ads


When flipping through a magazine I would not consider the advertisements to be art, yet I often find that they do grab and hold my attention. I have recently noticed a trend that magazine ads are no longer about showing off a skinny model or simply showing the product, but actually develop a composition. The vibrant colors of pretty clothes and jewelry or make-up attract the eye of the person reading the magazine at first, but the evidence of careful thought and planning allow the viewer to really appreciate the image for more than just an magazine ad.
