The Kailua Village Artists featured artist for the month of November is fine art and professional photographer Kathleen T. Carr, who has worked in her field over 50 years.
Carr has utilized a variety of techniques and alternate processes over the years, but her vision remains constant. Her current passions are digital infrared, landscapes, nature, photographing and filming dolphins, whales and other life underwater, and the digital darkroom. Among her featured photographs this month are black and white photograph “Baby Humpback Whale” and handcolored infrared photograph “IR Mahina Hula” and a color photograph “Jade Vine Flower”.
Carr received a fine arts degree in photography in 1970 and then studied extensively with Minor White and worked for Aperture, a renowned photography quarterly. In 1991, she was given a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship. For decades, she taught alternative Polaroid techniques and Photoshop in colleges, art centers and the San Francisco Art Institute. She still offers private instruction in photography, Photoshop and the digital darkroom. Her award-winning work has been exhibited internationally, purchased for private collections, and has appeared in numerous books and periodicals.
Carr will be working at the gallery on Nov. 16 and 27. The gallery is located at 75-5729 Alii Drive, Suite C-110, in the Kona Marketplace in Kailua-Kona. It is open 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily.
