FINE ART PHOTOGRAPHY for the home, office or beach house. The "Shells" are a series of macro sepia tinted photos. Her macro photographs of the shells reveal the clean simple lines, curves and angles created by nature. These ethereal, dreamlike close ups expose the perfections and imperfections of life and the exquisiteness of both. AWARDS 2007 American Photo Magazine Images of the Year Competition-Honorable Mention http://www.popphoto.com/americanphotofeatures/2179/american-photo-images-of-the-year-competition.html SHOWS 2001 Boltax Gallery-Group Show Shelter Island, NY 2008 New York Mercantile Exchange "Shells" New York City, NY ABOUT SHAWN Shawn Ehlers worked as a model with the fashion photographers, Helmut Newton, Albert Watson, Olivero Toscani, wearing the elegant designs of Giorgio Armani, Karl Lagerfeld and Donna Karan. While studying photography at ICP in New York City she found a point of focus by marrying the photographic techniques she absorbed and the aesthetics of form and line in fashion. Her visual sources are finely attuned to the natural world, having almost always lived by the sea. There is no contrivance in her imagery as she has a personal clear image of nature, be it a shell, rock or cloud. Her sense of form, composition and light is pleasing and sensuous. Her photographs offer a rhythm of elegant vision. http://www.ehlersphoto.com |
