Robert James Johnson
Many of my paintings and photographs are simple celebrations of the skies and landscapes of the great southwest.
Some of my work in alternative photography using the nearly 200 year old process of Cyanotype printing is much the same, but is frequently also a departure wherein I take a glance at our world creating collages using combinations my own images, historic and found images, public domain images, advertising tropes, as well as nuggets of text and images gleaned from popular culture and the golden age of comic books.
My most recent explorations with Cyanotypes are a series of Macro Photographs captured with an iPad and a water drop over the lens. See some HERE.
