About the Item

Santa Fe based photographer James W. Pitts' primary focus for over 20 years has been on hand coating platinum prints from large format negatives. He explores the still life genera further, adding subtle color images to his vocabulary. Pitts credits a number of master painters as influences including Matisse. The new diptych (featured left) is part of an ongoing series which Pitts collects various plant life, the gourd in the image to the left is from his personal garden, with a backdrop that nods to Pollock. The results of these captures with his large format camera are classic, timeless photographic works of art.
