About the artist

Artist and photographer Reed Hearne, a BFA and MA graduate with roots in the pioneer West. Known for his unique process of digital manipulation applied to original photography to create subjective, emotional imagery.

Photography is not my principal aim but it is my primary tool.

I collect color, texture and design in my viewfinder from subjects that are often ordinary. Mental labels associated with the objects are discarded to form a digital painting that becomes its own subject. As Monet said, “To see we must forget the name of the thing we are looking at.”

 I hope to uncover what is beautiful, intriguing, contemplative and singular behind the mundane. Because true art springs always from its history, I never lose sight of the masters who sought to forge new frames of reference.
