Bio
Drew Reese was born in Annapolis Md. but spent his formative years in the San Francisco Bay Area. In 2000, he and his wife moved to Joshua Tree where they opened an Inn that catered to the hikers that came to Joshua Tree National Park. Here he turned his focus on the Desert Landscape and participated in shows at Joshua Tree Art Gallery, the ACE show at the Palm Springs Museum and other local venues. He is now retired in Santa Fe, NM where he continues to explore the local landscape. He has been featured online with ICM Photography Magazine, Spectaculum Magazine and participates in the Santa Fe Studio Tours.
Drew learned the technical aspects of Photography at San Francisco State University but is primarily self-taught. His real education came from taking pictures and studying the work of great photographers and painters. Everything from Classical to Modern Art has informed his work. He enjoys looking at a wide range of Art, visiting galleries and museums on a regular basis.
Artist Statement
My work is about seeing the movement and natural chaos in things. I take a painterly approach to my work, I use double exposure, slow shutter speeds and intentional camera movement to create images that are unique to my vision. Intuition and chance play a great part in my process. Whether I’m focusing on trees in nature, or wandering the streets of a foreign city, I see beauty everywhere. With this style of shooting, I’m never sure of what I have until I’m in front of the computer. There are many misses, but when you get it right, it’s very exciting.
