ANDERSON, SC (PRWEB) September 1, 2005 -

PrintedArt Welcomes Photographer Colin Hyman to its Diverse Catalogue of Artists

Franklin Lakes, NJ (PRWEB) March 18, 2011

PrintedArt, an online fine art photography gallery (http://www.printedart.com), is pleased to announce that it has added renowned photographer, Colin Hyman to its growing library of renowned and inspiring artists.

“My interest in photography developed at an early age when I received a brownie box camera as a gift from my father,” said Colin Hyman. “I later went on to study memo motion, a form of time lapse photography, during a work study program. Memo motion was a form Salvador Dali was greatly interested in.”

Colin’s interest in the art of photography flourished and he began to use a Contax 645 AF medium format camera when he moved to Asia in 2002. There, he took his love of art and nature to the next level by focusing his photography around the beauty of Asia’s natural environment. His artwork is available at http://www.printedart.com/portfolio/114.

About PrintedArt:
