Painterly

Painterly

My work explores a painterly approach to photography, using the camera as a paintbrush to create impressionistic images that evoke feeling rather than simply record a scene.
If ten photographers stand before the same tree, the resulting images may be quite similar. My process, however, embraces movement and/or multiple exposures- where multiple images are combined either in-camera or Photoshop. These techniques transform everyday subjects into unique images.
This unpredictability is central to the photographs here. No two images are ever the same, and even attempting to recreate one is nearly impossible.
Creating photographs in this way brings me enormous joy. It opens up endless creative possibilities, where photography and painting meet, and where emotion and imagination guide the final image.
