Beauty Around Us The Art of Yvan Bedard

By Esther Mathias

Inspired by his natural surroundings, Yvan Bedard's Fine Art Photography features landscapes and native cultures. He captures atmospheric changes through the use of soft lights, warm colors, shadows, and blurred and smooth edges. He uses lighting to create shape and depth in his works and defuses highlights to depict the object's truthful texture and correct color. Strong lights in a blooming, dominant, lucid atmosphere create the allure that forms the foundation of his work.
