Art Gallery Silent Communication Artist Portraits

Photographed by Linnea Lenkus, photography and mixed media artist Bill Hornaday, wowed with his artwork accepted for “Silent Communication”. His fine art photography Aqua Terra 20, colorfully lit up the collection at our contemporary art gallery. This piece plays with elements of light, color, and reflection in order to fully grasp the beauty found in nature. As you stare into his photograph, it is possible to get lost in the ripples of color as they transform from real objects to abstract figures.

In conjunction with our recent live art show, Los Angeles fine art photographer and curator at Linus Galleries, Linnea Lenkus, has continued her Artist Portrait Series in an effort to encourage artists to view our contemporary art gallery as a welcoming resource for their future artistic endeavors. Lenkus’ portraits of the participating artists show how comfortable these photography sessions were in order to truly capture every individual’s unique personality. Lenkus is a seasoned photographer creating family portrait photography, infant photography, boudoir photography, and much more for all stages of people’s lives.

Artist Bio:

Bill Hornaday is a BFA graduate from UCLA, where he attended both the Art and Film Schools. Bill worked in the film industry for many years, for Columbia Pictures and Avco Embassy Pictures among other companies. He has worked intermittently as a photographer since film school and as always used the camera as a form of artistic expression. Since 2005, Bill has been devoting himself full-time to photography and photography-related mixed media. Bill’s interest recently has concentrated on the reflections of light and color to create abstractions, and using these abstractions to photographically “paint” a picture through the lens. He does not use any filters whatsoever to abstract his images, but captures these photo-paintings directly from nature. He has been shown at the Smithsonian, and in galleries in Carmel, Palo Alto, Bethesda and Santa Cruz.
