Kathy VanTorne brings her experience as a painter and her background in graphic design to the world of photography. Kathy's photography is distinguished by her creative compositions, attention to quality of light, careful use of frame and space, bold color saturation, and her personal technique for creating a "frame within a fram" (or a "picture within a picture") Her photographs celebrate a corner to corner, edge to edge clarity of vision and overall cohesion that brings to life her subject matter in vivid detail.
Kathy makes no apologies for seeing the world in bright, bold colors. Her world is color - she's armed with an artist's palette and she's not afraid to use it. While she loves color and the effects of light, and uses these elements to create personalized impressions of her subjects, her selective eye and foundation in art and design allow her to create images that move beyond the bold and into the memorable.
