SaLLY maNN.


This haunting image of the amazing photographer is so powerful, just like her work.

She somehow, magically and mystically, transforms what is a simply beautiful view into a complete vision - a piece that the onlooker is sure to never forget. Her photography really inspires the romantic and peaceful feeling one would get from enjoying a day out in the nature with those you love. Okay, maybe not this self portrait. But her other landscape photographs are truly mesmerizing. 


There is something about the way she prints them and the techniques she uses that transforms the imperfections throughout the process. The "mistakes" or imperfections that develop only add to the mystery and mystique of the art.
Her work and the passion she has for the things she photographs really instills within me a desire to make art that will last. Art that I will want to look back on years from now and smile, remember, or experience it all over again.
It's magic.
