Artist Statement:
All my work is done in a
*very* simple, traditional
darkroom -
One enlarger, four trays, and
a collection of hand tools
made from things you can buy
at any art supply, or hardware
store. Though I work digitally
(making web graphics), nothing

art portfolio has ...

| Your Personal Biography |
Bob Bennett grew up in Maine and New Hampshire, graduated from St Paul's School in Concord, N.H., in 1969... and then spent 20+ years in the Washington, D.C. area, before moving to California in 1992.
He's been an advertising art director ('76-'81), and was working as a freelance architectural photographer ('81-'91), when he opened the pandora's box of photomontage in the early '80's.
Since then, his work has been seen in a number of national publications, both 'on assignment' and as 'stock', and in galleries and competitive exhibits on both coasts.
He currently divides his time between shooting film, gathering pixels, & photomontage printing (still done exclusively in a simple 'traditional'/chemical darkroom),
...and various digital work - including digital photo-illustration & montage, web graphics development, and high-end digital printing - in Marin County, CA.
When he's not doing that?
... he's definitely at the beach, or in the desert, somewhere...
