Lee’s photographic time is currently divided between his professional image making career, teaching, and his relentless creative drive. Lee professionally photographs the architectural and/or lifestyle and interior design statements of resorts, hotels, and fine homes. He pursues his creative interests by teaching photography and digital workflow, and also producing hand-made fine art archival photographic prints. His work is displayed in many corporate collections, hospitals, and residential environments. While pursuing each of these related photographic endeavors, he has committed a lifetime of passion and enthusiasm to continuously elevate his art and craft. “Prior to owning my first cameras, I can recall as a child seeing shafts of light containing dust particles suspended, floating through time. This early fascination with light, continues today. The quality of light, its direction, shape, and how it reveals form, allows us to see the suspension of time. The magic of photography records light and time, these two constants remain of paramount importance, integral to my creative process. Seeing photographically what I feel, and emotionally feeling what I see, immersed within the camera connects my vision to the wonders of the earth, and her extraordinary places, faces, and spaces.” |

Debra L. Snyder began her formal art education at Parsons School of Art & Design in New York, and years later, she studied acrylic and watercolor painting with renowned artists at the Woodstock School of Art. Her favored theme of landscapes and seascapes was inspired while living at the Jersey Shore, the Catskill Mountains, and the coastal areas of New England. Upon encountering alcohol ink while in Arizona, she was immediately intrigued by this fluid art, the brilliance of the pigment, and its versatility. Unlike acrylic or watercolor painting, alcohol ink allows for freedom of expression, which she finds unique and challenging. Debra has been practicing as an alcohol ink artist for the past seven years and continues to discover new techniques and applications with this exciting medium. Debra began teaching art classes in 2015 in New Jersey and went on to create her mobile art business, Art Party Express, LLC. |
