John Schell, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

Captured by photographer John Schell in Los Angeles, this portrait photograph features an artist viewed in soft-focus foreground profile as he works. In the mid-ground, an easel holds a dark, highly detailed portrait painting of a bearded man staring forward. The warm, ambient lighting highlights the texture of the canvas and the artist's glasses. The analog film aesthetic is enhanced by visible grain and dark tones.
