Art On Your Doorstep

The new Exhibition, Art on Your Doorstep at the The Red House Museum, Gomersal began together and runs until the 8th July 2012. I am delighted to be one of a small selection of artists chosen to exhibit work in this exhibition and have specially created Limited Edition Giclee Prints capturing intriguing views of the beautiful countryside landscapes of the Yorkshire Dales.

My work consists of a series of  Framed Limited Edition Giclee Prints, captured and processed entirely on the iPhone inspired by the natural landscapes of the Yorkshire Dales. Here are two of the images....feel free to come along to the exhibition to see the rest.

Atmospheric iPhoneography

Here are some more atmospheric shots captured in Boat of Garten during a mid afternoon walk amongst the picturesque Scottish landscape...










Snow Monkey Stand Off!!

Here is a montage image I captured at the Highland Wildlife Park in Kingussie, Scotland. The images were captured on the iPhone and processed on the iPad. I captured hundreds of images at the Wildlife Park, over a few days, but this particular image stood out for me..... the Snow Monkeys were wonderful!

Beautiful Scotland

I have just got back from a fantastic trip to Scotland where the scenery was amazing and the weather superb...including a few days of thick snow! It was a real treat for me and I was in my element, photographing pretty much everything I saw! I made a decision on the first day that I was going to challenge myself to shoot predominantly on the iPhone and process all images on the iPhone and iPad. This made me look very differently at subjects and capture shots that I may normally have overlooked if using a professional camera with a telephoto lens. By the end of the week I started processing my work into mini series of themed shots...but to begin with I indulged in capturing and processing individual images that I found particularly interesting. Here are a few of my favourites...many more to follow!

Art in Arran

I have been very fortunate this year to take a second trip to the beautiful Isle of Arran, Scotland. I spent the week exploring the Island through photography, timelapse filming and sketching. I am currently working on a series of photographic montage prints and original ink works inspired by my trip. I indulged in iPhoneography for much of the week. Here are a few of my favourite images...many more to come!
