Featured Artist - Arlene Taus Salomon

I would like to share the work of Arlene Taus Saloman with you, she is a 4 star member of Design Style Guide. Arlene resides in Hawaii and her Etsy store is iliahi.etsy.com
She is a very talented photographer, her photographs are exotic and beautiful and come in different photo sizes from 5x7 to 11x17 inches. Most images are also available in Giclee print and Gallery Wrapped on canvas, sized from 11x14 to 24x30 inches. So you have many options from a small simple print, to a large fantastic gallery wrapped print. All depending on the look you want.
Here are some of her images that are available;

Straight from her Bio;
"Arlene Taus Salomon has her B.F.A. in Fine Arts and is an ISA Certified Arborist. She is an instructor of art and plant sciences and has taught workshops at the Art Center and Community College on Maui. She has a multimedia studio in her home where she experiments mostly with photography, fiber art related mediums, metalsmith and jewelry design. Her photography features views of Hawaii with dazzling botanical prints and sweeping landscapes reproduced as large size giclees. Her handmade papers are made by cooking and pounding local plant fibers. Recently, she has begun to print her images onto her handmade papers using alternative photographic techniques like cyanotype, Van Dyke brown printing and photogravure. Another aspect of her life is Arboriculture or tree/plant biology. When she is not in her studio she is out in the field managing her horticultural business in which she consults, specializes in native plant landscape design and all aspects of tree care."
I hope you enjoyed seeing Arlene's work as much as I enjoyed sharing them with you. Make sure you check out her etsy shop.
