Lynn Wiles – Impressionist Photography

Featured photographic artist – Lynn Wiles

I first discovered Lynn’s work about one year ago and was impressed both with her imagery as well as her dedication to posting images to her blog on a daily basis. Believe me, this is not an easy accomplishment!

Much of Lynn Wiles work borders on abstract with rich colours and painterly qualities. The images speak for themselves.

Trunks in Grass - Lynn Wiles

I originally wanted to capture the feeling of walking in the woods, by using a slow shutter speed and moving my camera in line with the trees. Since then I have used this in-camera technique in other environments. Each type of scene seems to need a different shutter speed and type of camera movement to create the impression most suited to the subject. The objective is to create painterly images that convey the feelings of nature in abstraction.

Artists Bio:

I live in Somerville, MA and started exhibiting in the 70’s. My early works were hand painted black and white images processed in my darkroom. In 2001, I went digital and since then, I primarily shoot in color. The technologies have changed but I still find myself interested in the same subjects, nature, architecture, still lifes and abstractions.

Most of my photographs remove details from context so as to present them anew. I enjoy walking and photographing, watching the cycles of the seasons, pausing to capture patterns or creating abstractions. By looking closely at detail and the underlying structure I find beauty in the ordinary.
