Thomas Philbrook's photostream  

I've spent the past 30 years in the field of Graphic Design & illustration. My current goal to pursue my own personal fine art. In recent years, my chosen medium has been the computer — And most often, in concert with photography. My subject matter is the natural world around us. Its diversity. Its beauty. Its spirituality. Illustrating these qualities is what I strive for in my pictures.

I maintain an archive of thousands of photographs I’ve taken through the years. Indeed, hundreds of just clouds alone. My cameras are mostly simple point-and-shoot models. I also maintain a collection of natural objects I’ve accumulated — feathers, shells, insects, even pumpkin stems. I composite scanned photos along with objects scanned directly on the scanner bed and drawings I render traditionally.

Hopefully, my work will find an audience who enjoys it as much as I enjoy making it.
