59th Street Bridge NYC - Limited Edition of 5 Print

As a trained graphic designer Joel’s vision has always leaned towards images with a strong graphic element and usually powerful colors and/or shapes. Shapes, shadows, textures and angles are the essence of his art. Looking thru a camera viewfinder since the age of twelve has trained him to see images worth recording dozens of times each day. His training as a graphic artist heavily influences the images he shoots. This visual training has enabled him to evolve as a photographic artist. Manipulation is kept to a minimum and composition is all done in the viewfinder to preserve the integrity of the image. The success of his work is the result of learning to see the image thru the eye of the camera.
