Digital Photography on Cotton Canvas, Varnished And Stretched Onto Two Inch Deep Stretcher Bar


Artist: Pete Kelly

Utilizing digital manipulation, and printing on cotton canvas with ultrachrome pigmented inks, Kelly blurs the line between photography and painting.

His subject matter, ranging from images of the natural world (flora and fauna), to urban and residential landscapes, focuses on the individual's place in a given environment as expressed by his or her body language.

"My approach to photography is very similar to a painter, I want to interpret more than is captured in one frame, the image capture is just the beginning of the creative process for me.

My work is a complex process of multiple photographic layers, some textural, some imagery, layered in Photoshop and output to museum-quality digital pigment prints on watercolour paper, mounted on board with encaustic wax surface, consisting of Bees wax and Damar resin."
