These photos were selected from a broad range of wildlife photographs I’ve taken over the years. My creative process for this project often involves a combination of multiple images, textures, adjustment layers, blending modes and digital paint brushes in Photoshop and other creative software programs to develop a final image. My goal is to create an artistic interpretation resulting in a harmonious blending of the subject and setting which I hope enhances the impact of the photo overall, drawing the viewer into a more intimate experience with the subject. Each photograph is a unique combination of techniques, in some cases utilizing several photographic elements.
