These images were created in the style of the Impressionists: Cezanne and Gauguin in particular. They had such an intuitive understanding of composition and color, and I found it challenging to try and emulate their style. In these images I was shooting for a more "painterly" style of photography.
I used a flashlight in a dark room, taking multiple shots of different areas and layering them in Photoshop. I really like the effect of the light painting; it gives a more natural feeling to the light-but at the same time is unpredictable and difficult to reproduce exactly.
