About the Item
In 1834, William Henry Fox Talbot (1800–1877) saw that silver salts darkened in the sun and invented a photographic process he called “photogenic drawing” — in which images were made without a camera, the subject simply laid on chemically treated paper and exposed to light. This is the archaic process I use to make Las Sombras. These are the remains of living things — plants, reptiles, mammals, insects, and birds. They make their own image, a kind of shadow, which will last long after they are gone. Their ghostly imprints, are burned directly onto paper with light and with love to make a permanent record. I've made these ‘photograms’ of everything I find dead — from deer and coyote to bees and moths — as well as flowers and weeds from my back yard, in an attempt to document and chronicle the natural world which is my endless inspiration as an artist.

'Blackburian Warbler' - bird - black and white - Audubon
Located in Atlanta, GA
"Blackburian Warbler" is a black and white artwork made from asphalt on cement and plaster mounted on wood panel.
Atlanta-based artist, Tim Hunter’s work stems from his love of nature and concern for the environment. In 2003 he began working primarily with images of birds as an expression of his spiritual connection with nature. After reading an article about the declining bird populations in Georgia, he turned his focus to environmental issues. An avid bird watcher, Tim also experienced the heavily wooded area he grew up in, slowly reduced to shopping malls and subdivisions. He uses asphalt and cement to create his works which refer to the loss of habitat due to human expansion, which is one of the main causes of declining bird populations.

Tim received a BFA in printmaking from California College of Arts, Oakland, CA and an MFA in painting from Georgia State...
