Impressions: Crescent Beach Photography Club 2018 - 2019

Inspired by the art of the great impressionists, Crescent Beach Photography Club challenged its members to explore the theme of the fleeting instant. From animal habitats to memories of past experiences, this exhibition features artists who have taken the photograph from its original state and developed an image that soothes the soul and captures the imagination.

Group members use everything from smartphones to mirrorless lens cameras. Yet, the Impressionist theme encouraged them to take a more painterly approach for this exhibit. In contrast to the accuracy and focus emphasized in journalism or fashion photography, many of the works in Impressions are abstract or suggestive. They allow visitors to develop a feel for what they are looking at based on sensation.

Artists: Roy Abbott, Ted Akune, Pam Avis, Sheldon Boles, Larry Breitkreutz, Robyn Cowan, Rob Donaldson, Sasha Fairbairn, Wayne Farrow, Geoff Hayes, Joy Hayes, Derek Hayes, Earl Hirtz, Carol How, Lynne Kelman, Ron Kelman, Karen Kroeker, Leo Le Couteur, Hafeez Mian, Llaesa North, Norman Orr, John Ostaf, Brian Palmer, Gayle Reeves, Mike Singleton, Scott Stone, Mike Strong, Barry Wilks
