I'm Fine Art photographer and I create portrait photographs using my own ‘painterly effect’ technique. My passion for Dutch painting and Impressionism always pushes me to use the principles of achieving chiaroscuro lighting that the artists used. Light tones, colors and shades allow the smoother transition from light to shadow in a photo. As for me, photography is a ‘kind of feeling’ not a technique. The essence is the emotional substance rather than color, composition or form. Technical means and elements may only enhance the emotional response.
