In college, having viewed Ansel Adams' spectacular prints in a book, I decided that I wanted to create beautiful images like that. It didn't take long for me to realize, leaving aside the obvious qualitative differences between a master photographer and a college student that my images looked nothing like Ansel Adams' prints. While his photos were of nature, I was drawn to people and places. It is an elusive thing, trying to capture or even articulate, what Still, the photographs that I have been able to produce since then, in my travels around Europe and Asia represent this quest for hidden meaning in the implied narrative of the image.

Luise Andersen - Luise'Mignon' Andersen Luise'Mignon' Andersen has only recently begun to reveal her lifes work. Soon after her debut she exploded onto the mainstream art world. Her breathtaking pieces have captured international interest. The stories Luise'Mignon' is telling through her truly deep, layered works seem to decipher the past and foretell the future, perhaps sharing her window to other dimensions and a seventh sense.
