Bob Leishman
Artist Reception October 12, 6:30 - 8:30 PM
Hello, I am Bob Leishman from the USA currently living in Riverton, Utah. Digital photography/art and digital photograph restoration are where I focus my artistic productivity.
Seminars, workshops and a few Art Center classes have inspired development of several gallery presentations in the Salt Lake Area with several pieces selected for display in competitions sponsored by the Salt Lake Photographic Print Society. My work is represented in private collections in various states with some publicly displayed in the Salt Lake County Library System.
Assuredly, talent must be fed and nurtured in order to grow. My objective is to inspire my audience with images that recall good times and places, motivate dreams of places to go and things to do, and to stir the soul to inspired and loftier heights. Subjects range from grand landscapes to intimate flowers, beautiful colors to playful children, and urban skylines to detailed reflections, textures and shadows.
It is more than satisfying to receive a damaged and torn picture from a family album, and through the digital restoration process produce an image that rivals or even surpasses the quality of the original. And, when the restored image is returned to the owner and results in a big smile or eyes misty from the memory stirred, I know I've done a good work.
My goal with photography and photographic restoration is to warm hearts, incent smiles and inspire. To tell a story that touches the observer who stops by long enough to see and to feel.
