CONCEPT OF 🍃 BEAUTY

Sometimes beauty is graceful endurance,
instead of moment's sparkle.

In these images the flowers are past their prime, the wood is decaying and the rocks are eroding. The colors are dominated by brown and gray tones in addition to subtle hints of pastel greens and reds.

What is beautiful? Can ugly be beautiful? These two adjectives can be found together in these photographs. What I am seeking here is beauty beyond the surface.

ABOUT ME

I AM A FINE ART & PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER BASED IN TURKU, FINLAND.

 

I dedicate a lot of time and effort in creating limited edition fine art prints. Initially I did it by traditional film process and now by using a digital workflow and inkjet printers.

Recently I started printing on aluminum and other rigid surfaces using large UV-printers.  http://bit.ly/Seven-prints

These types of prints make the photograph feel alive connecting with the viewer and also with the space where they are displayed.
