Photos from Oregon Coast Workshop

The field workshop I lead on the Oregon coast is always one of the most relaxing. The locations are gorgeous–Cannon Beach, Cape Meares, Astoria, and the Columbia River. There is always something new to see!

The next one is scheduled for July 10-12, 2015.

On Location: Katmai National Park


This past week I was in Katmai National Park photographing brown bears with filmmaker Abraham Joffe. The bears were wonderful, cooperative models for us & I can’t wait to see the resulting TV special.

I was very excited to get back in the studio for the first time in two years to continue my exploration of the Human Canvas project–this time with a Leica. It germinated in my mind over 20 years ago and I’m not nearly through with it yet. Abraham Joffe and his crew were in from Australia to film the day’s work as well,which was long, tiring and wonderful.

Curious Animals Interview

Art wolfe on location in Bhutan

I recently completed an interview with Graeme Green of Curious Animal. Curious Animal is online magazine for Adventure Travel, Photography, Music, Books, Big Issues and Ideas from around the world. He split the interview into two posts.

Interview Part 1

“I’m as enthusiastic as I was 40 years ago. The big death for a lot of artists is when they run out of enthusiasm, run out of ideas, run out of inspiration.”

Interview Part 2

I am off to Katmai National Park for a week. Those brown bears are irresistible if you ever get the chance!

Svalbard, Norway

While I wasn’t so happy with the tour operator on this my second trip to the Norwegian Arctic archipelago of Svalbard, I was able to capture some interesting landscapes and wildlife shots. I was able to concentrate on one of my favorite subjects, abstracts, especially in the glacially carved mountains of Spitsbergen. Also, I wish Vanishing Act didn’t already go to print because I got a couple really good camouflage photos involving a hungry Arctic fox.

This is only a fraction of the photos. To see more visit www.artwolfestock.com.
