Peterson is a relative newcomer to photography,
first picking up a camera four and a half years ago. What started
as an attempt to balance his computer related career with a
creative diversion turned into a passion. His portfolio of
romantic studio
nudes and nudes in nature has been published alongside works
by Steve McCurry on The Times Journal of Photography (January
2002) as part of an article “Showcasing 29 World Renowned
Photographers.”
Tomás Del Amo has been a professional commercial photographer
since 1979. He has served for three terms as President of the
Colorado Chapter of the American Society of Media Photographers.
Del Amo owns a full service studio in Boulder and a location
studio in Honolulu. He specializes in corporate, industrial,
portrait and product photography.
“
Making a profit or selling a piece is secondary to me,” said
Chisholm, who went on to explain that the main goal of the
exhibition is to educate and acquaint art collectors and the
public to the
beauty of female forms in photography. Chisholm believes that
photography can capture a unique moment in time and make an
audience see and feel things in ways that would be very hard
to do in
other media.
“
The female form has a very fascinating shape to me because it
is full of curves,” said Joel Warkentin Jr., a recreational
photographer and MACOM student at HPU. “I think in art
and photography, the figure as the subject is just one part
of the image; the lighting, texture, and composure form the
other
part.”
More than 20 images are showcased for the exhibition, which
is open for public viewing Monday through Fridays. Admission
is
free, and the show will run from Oct. 1 to Nov. 4. Gallery
F22 and Photographic Support, Inc., are located 22 South
Pauahi, #101, in downtown Honolulu. Call 545-1882 for
details. Photography
classes and studio renting are also available.
