I am a recently retired research scientist and lifelong photographer. Both my science and my photography required me to develop and hone my abilities to observe, be it patterns of behavior, patterns of light and darkness, the detail of a caterpillar’s skin, or the stretch of a mountain range below storm clouds. Both have also enabled me to visit that special place where the intensity of focus puts me squarely in the present moment and utterly involved with the object of that focus. I gravitate towards deep, rich, old-world colors and light, and I aim for “painterly” images.
Three of my photos were licensed by the Metropolitan Museum of Art for use in an Ad campaign in 2011. I have exhibited in juried shows at the Salmagundi Club in NYC, the Fairfield Museum and History Center, Arts Center East in Vernon, and others.
Although my goals are not primarily commercial, I am willing to consider requests for professionally printed and mounted images.
My photography is showcased on my personal website: https://www.christineacebo.com/
