Artist Statement:

David enjoyed photography most of his life, but when professional quality digital photography finally became affordable around 2003, his interest in photography as an art form matured rapidly. He immersed himself in the technical details of both Photoshop and digital printmaking. My artistic vision is to combine my instincts for photographic composition with the digital techniques required to convey a personal impression of some aspect of the world that resonates with him emotionally.

Pamela Marshall has long been interested in photography, starting with a Brownie camera and a Girl Scout photography badge. She took her father’s old Argus half-frame camera on a trip to Scotland in the 1970’s , getting 72 slides per roll. When the time cam to move to digital cameras, she welcomed the flexibility and possibilities of Photoship, with its ability to fine-tune exposures and framing. She also uses the computer for stitching together multiple photos into panoramas. She loves landscape photography, as well as close ups of rocks and walls.
