Carlin Felder

I'm a photographer and watercolor/mixed media artist. My primary style of photography is Macro Expressionism. Macro Expressionism is a conceptual style of photographing a subject close-up. It deviates from the hyper-realistic macro style used by mainstream photographers (photo-realistic bugs for example), emphasizing what is important in the photographer’s frame at the moment, and isn’t concerned with the representation of the object as a whole.

My inspiration comes from being a painter and the love of a good Color Field painting or a wonderfully seductive use of paint which was the hallmark of the Abstract Expressionists.
