Roseanne (Pinhole photography /digital manipulation)

ARTIST STATEMENT
In 1998 I began to work with pinhole photography. I use an oatmeal box pinhole camera to make 8x10 inch B&W negatives. With its extreme wide angle and distortion, the camera is a delight because it gives me results that are constantly a surprise. I develop the B&W negatives, scan them into Photoshop, and then colorize the image by pulling curves in each of the channels. It is a thrill to make an image rooted in 16th Century pinhole optics juxtaposited with 21st Century digital print manipulations. These newest photographs of mine are a blend of these opposites.

ARTIST STATEMENT
Like you, I love the marvel that is art.
I am often asked where I get my ideas from, but I experience it the other way around: the ideas get me. The art of creating a character on canvas is a journey of discovery each time. I never know exactly who the personality will be until we meet at the end. The work is finished when the painting looks back at me.

My images are in praise of high heeled shoes and explore their fascination for men and women alike. Divorced from their primary purpose, for some people high heeled shoes have artistic merit on their
own account; they are objets trouvés, even Duchampian ready-mades. Here, pristine, unworn mules, made by John Bedwell of London, remain in
their box.
