A Quiet Place - Limited Edition of 25 Photograph

Brenda finds beauty in the greyest of days and is inspired by our familiar and varied landscape, open spaces, big skies, charming old buildings and beautiful light. Her art is evocative with a strong sense of belonging and of the personal stories we attach to special places in our lives. What Brenda sees through the lens is just the beginning of a creative process, blending photography with digital art and blurring the distinction between reality, whimsy, nostalgia, and imagination. Living in Christchurch, New Zealand, her career as a professional photographer spans more than two decades. Her early work included commercial, architectural and garden photography but she was predominantly a portrait photographer and has a gift for capturing the character of children. She remembers as a child watching her father tint black and white photographs, and years later would experiment with this process, developing photographs just that little bit further. Technology has replaced the dark room and now allows her to explore new possibilities with creative editing. BRENDA QUALLS 021 655 966
