As a photographer my sensibilities have been greatly affected by my background in painting. Here the grey base was made with pallet knife and flat grey paint. While still wet, I added elements of black-dyed cheese cloth, adding colored chalk dust, and white pigment from a tiny squeeze bottle. As the abstraction of the painting evolved to my satisfaction, I decided to pluck some orange petals from a day Lilly. They were strategically placed. Last but not least, the most important element for a photographer: light. The directional light extracted the unique textures and served to unify the unconventional combination of elements. Integrating different artistic techniques can often result in captivating and unconventional outcomes.
Let your imagination absorb these soothing tones and planes. This collaboration between photography and drawing suspends the viewer high above an aerial abstract where your mind can stretch beyond reality. This image is more of a feeling than a place, and is sure to render a sense of possibilities, calm, and expansiveness.
Light and time are the main cast members in this exciting abstract image. Colored silk and bits of floral are harmonizing in a visual dance of intentional camera movement. The addition of hand drawn elements by artist Yvonne Schwager (my wife) complete the collaboration.
This exciting abstract image plays with your imagination, taking you from cool to hot in a flight of fantasy. Created in a macro photographic world of dyed silk and focused light it is then finished by the photographer’s wife, Yvonne Schwager. This hand drawn delineation is interpreted separately by the artist’s whimsy. A collaboration of photography and drawing, it is a blend of visual image making that will spark your imagination and add a modernly bold statement to your environment.
Let this burst of color take you to an exciting place. A butterfly, a sail, a dragonfly? No need to assign reality. Allow yourself the sheer delight of absorbing the serendipity of dyed silk and light. Your environment will benefit from an uplifting treat you’ll never tire of. This unique visual experience promises to infuse any space with a constant source of inspiration and joy.
