Profile

Who I Am

I am an Artist.

I am a photographer.

I am a colorist.

Photographer: Definition : Light Drawing

Colorist: Definition: An artist who uses color in a special way/ a photographer who hand tints photographs.

I received my first camera at the age of nine and have been taking photographs ever since.

I learned how to print and process film in High School. I have a degree in Journalism and Sociology from the University of Wisconsin-Madison with an emphasis in Photo-Journalism.

Later, I earned a BS in Art at the same University . This is where I learned how to hand color

my photographs.

Hand-Colored Photographs

My passion and forte/Hand-colored Photographs.

All of my work starts out in Black and White.

I process my own film and make my own prints .

I add color to the surface of these images with Prismacolor pencil & colored inks; transforming the photographs into very personal images.

I use bold color to define areas in my photographs, which create more abstract images. Other times I will stay true to the photographic image and use soft colors and simple outlines to create more pastel, realistic images.

The colors I choose come from my emotions, memories and current surroundings.

I enjoy photographing architectural details as well as natural images. I am Wisconsin based but enjoy traveling the world to capture my images. I hope you enjoy my work. Alison
