Ben Varrey Photograph - Limited Edition of 200

In an overwhelmingly chaotic world, Southern California native underwater fine art portrait photographer Cheryl Walsh finds her inspiration in an atmosphere of peaceful solitude. In the depths of her underwater studio, she works with her camera in the quiet currents that slow down time, bring vibrancy to colors, and leave her subjects virtually weightless. Combining the science of working underwater with the art of photography, she utilizes elaborate, unique, avant-garde costumes and styling with traditional portraiture to tell dream-like stories in each of her fine art series. Her internationally award-winning photographs are described alternately as old-world painterly and illustrative yet are entirely photographic and acclaimed for their ethereal and effortless feel, exquisite lighting, attention to fine detail, posing, and color harmony. To maintain absolute control over her art, Cheryl prints her images herself on specifically chosen fine art papers in sizes up to 44x66 inches and has achieved the exclusive status of WPPI Print Competition Grand Master. Her limited-edition fine art prints are sought after by collectors around the world.
