With Mama's Donuts, I continue the palm series because I continue to be in awe of the strong Palm trees in our beautiful environment which struggle yet survive among the clutter in our field of vision. The endless blue sky, warm sunshine and countless signage are just some of the things we remember on roadtrips especially in southern California. Nostalgia is something we all have in common and I want to bring into your home a little piece of the sunshine and memories to make you smile and reflect. I also like to toy with reality. We know the sky is not green yet we can relate to the feeling it represents. With Mama's there is one more layer. Take a look at Donut's&Coffee (below taken in 2010). I've kept the composition the same to highlight the change from the humble cozy corner to a generic sign. I've photographed this unnoticeable sign to trigger a Desire mixed with nostalgia which fuels the allure to be in that moment and to participate in the scene. **Thank you gift from me, the artist,with a purchase of any available original limited edition photograph from my portfolio. You will receive, complimentary, one of my black&white silver gelatin darkroom processed photograph. The comp print will be one of my artist's copy and not necessarily seen in my portfolio.**

"Digital or Film the Lens is my brush" I especially enjoy layering and building a narrative with several photographs from my portfolio. I select, merge and play with the subjects to achieve a final impression where reality cannot. I choose elements to better describe the visual rather than insist on using the lens captured reality of that moment. Armenian Origin, grew up in Montreal, I am now a Vancouver based photographer and visual artist. My work is diverse in imagery and technique, working with both digital and analogue. With the Palm series, I wanted to create a series that's suspended in time and that described the feelings of adventures, of peaceful places and of a time when anything was possible. The brightly coloured dreamscapes are romantic, whimsical and calming. The improbable sky is emphasized in the minimalist landscape to highlight the duality of the cluttered urban chaos and the serene meditative landscape. Since shutting down my private darkroom, only select analogue B/W images are available. (handprinted on silver gelatin paper) "Rita Minichiello’s recent photography exhibit in Vancouver was like coming across a beautiful warm oasis. Love her sense of whimsical juxtaposition of familiar images against the playful bright green skies. As a fan of collage in both paintings as well as photography, these works are inspiring." DM
