Artist's
Statement The challenge in photography is often
one of elimination. The world is big. The world is
cluttered. Creating the essential landscape
is carefully focusing in from the clutter to find the elements of a scene
that
make it interesting; that evoke emotion; that capture the
essence.
Bio
Daryl Spencer was born in Vancouver, BC and raised in a
household that valued innovation and a love of the natural world. At age 8, he began
exploring the art of photography with a Kodak Instamatic camera and later, a
35mm SLR, but was limited in his new hobby by the expense involved
in purchasing film. Daryl grew up to earn an engineering degree but continued
to foster a love of photography. In 2002, he acquired a
digital camera and reveled in the film-free environment, discovering the
nuances of lighting, composition, and form through experimentation and
detailed analysis. He further honed his skills by seeking feedback from
fellow photographers and printmakers, and by fitting in courses and
workshops wherever possible. Daryl believes that to excel at anything
requires a healthy dose of creativity and persistence, things that he
has always cultivated in his own approach to life. He
has had the good fortune to travel to some of the most remote corners of
the planet, capturing their magic through photography for the rest of us
to
admire.
Prints Prints of Daryl's work are produced with archival
pigment on paper and are available in a variety of sizes.
