In this article, I will attempt to direct the Peter Lik Style and touch on some technical aspects of what made it so unique.ДЄlexander Gubski Photography is an independent business. Millions of vacationers in major coastal American cities must saw attractive vibrant pictures displayed in modern luxury appointed galleries. When I say giant sized I'm talking 5 and 9 foot sized prints and larger literally wall sized in that back mounted lucite process.To this day pretty much every photographer in the world must have heard of Peter Lik.

A majority of the prints are all giant sized that before you even get to is it a good image the materials of the print already are worth 100's if not thousands of dollars. Likt is the poster boy for why marketing and understanding business as well as understanding don't undersell or underprice your work are keystones that most photographers forget and sadly to many photography websites proselytize that photographers should forget about in regards to copyright and pricing.ДЄs a note if anyones been to Likts galleries, I've been through the one in SoHo NYC and before you even get to the value of the photography itself you have to admire what the man is doing in his presentation of his image's.Д®very print in the gallery is back mounted onto a lucite backing so you get that translucent reflective glowing color effect there are no photo paper prints anywhere. A bit egocentric and has a feeling of inadequacy as if his work isn't proof enough but that aside it an integral part of his marketing strategy and it seems to work.

Liks whole Master photography schtick goes right down to a framed copy of his certificate from the photography program he graduated from in australia to prove he's a master photographer. Her husband was the marketing / business genius as I remember it. A good example of that last is the artist Olivia who did all the erotic art pinup painting in the 70's. Sometimes you have a good combination of both sometimes you don't and sometimes you have 2 people who make up that equation. Fstoppers congratulates Peter Lik and can't wait to see what's coming next from him.ДЄ good marketer and businessman has nothing to do with being a good artist. Hailing from humble beginnings in his native Australia, this is quite a historic moment for Peter Lik. He's won awards and accolades cementing his stake as one of the world's most talented and dedicated artists'. Lik has been shooting landscapes in the most beautiful places on earth for 30 years. Rarely ever departing from his normal vibrant and colorfulВ style, the black and white style are quite compelling and different from Lik.

The two works that sold today, 'Phantom,' and, 'Eternal Moods,' are black and white representations of Lik's iconic images 'Ghost' and 'Eternal Beauty,' shown below.В Lik is widely known and regarded for his artistic take on landscape photography and capturing the colors that Mother Nature provides. 'The intensity of contrasting light and dark spaces was surprising, but made for some of the most powerful images I've ever created.'

'Certain textures and contours found in nature lend themselves beautifully to black and white photography,' said Lik. This subterranean caver is where Lik captured, 'Phantom,' a ghost-like figure depicted in the black and white photo above. Arizona's Antelope Canyon isВ a slot canyon carved out by natural flowing water over the course of millions of years. The Southwestern region of the United States is Lik's all-time favorite places to shoot.
