STATEMENT: David Burt is a local photographer who has devoted a lifetime to his craft. The three black and white portraits in this exhibition represent a small sampling of his portrait work, created from 1979 to 1988. His intention was to capture a certain essence of beauty and mystery, projected by each of these three women.
Living in the Ozarks, he also often captures the beautiful landscape. The print, “Waterfall On Long’s Creek“, is a very special area within the Hercules Glades Wilderness Area, near where he lives and works. This particular spot is dear to his heart, where he has camped many a night close enough to be soothed by the sounds from the waterfall. His image reminds him of the essence of this place, revealing its beauty and mystery as well.
