A Special Kind of Creative Photography by Don O. Thorpe |

PHOTO IMPRESSIONISM |

CLICK ON THE IMAGE FOR A LARGER VIEW |
Impressionist images using digital techniques can
emphasize the emotional character of the subject in a
way that is more revealing than traditional photography.
My style of Photo Impressionism uses special techniques to simplify and intensify the
colors and visual planes of the subject. The integrity of the image is preserved, but the colors and textures are enhanced or minimized. The intent is to produce a stronger visual impression that talks to
the emotions more than the intellect.
Many of these photographs were
shown in an exhibits sponsored by the Utah Arts Council, the Patrick Moore Gallery, and
the Eccles Art Center. The
images were
produced with a variety of techniques that emphasize the Impressionist style.
