"Painting With Light" ~ Photo-Paintings by Paul J. McCloskey

"Painting With Light" Photo-Paintings by Paul J. McCloskey Owner - Graphic/Visual Artist, Fine art Photographer, Printmaker, and Painter · April, 2004 to present · San Luis Obispo, California I like to think of my graphic arts/photography as "painting with light…a sacred light.” I am attempting to portray and communicate not only the breathtaking beauty in nature, but also the ambiance and spirit of it using natural light to help "paint" my images... in camera and the digital darkroom. I consider myself to be somewhat of a “digital alchemist”, and refer to my art/work as “Photo-Painting”, which I consider to be a convergence of today’s digital photography/imaging technology with the concepts of traditional printmaking, and the fine art of plein-air art... it's ALL about light.
