John Fewster FCSD.
Photographer
John Fewster is a designer and photographer. He has worked for many years in corporate communications, branding and advertising and is a Fellow of the Chartered Society of Designers. His photography majors on landscape and includes published collections from the Scottish West Highlands and the Austrian Alps, in addition to local Rye area material.
He offers a very particular view of landscape, spending much time getting close to the rural or mountain environs, especially walking or running through the secluded parts of the countryside surrounding Rye. Many of the photographs capture a composition at a special moment in time where weather or light effects, sometimes even night light, combine to articulate the image.
The essence of these prints is a great image, but that is only the beginning of a meticulous process of crafting and optimisation of the digital photo files, drawing on many years of experience in design, colour imaging and reprographics, to produce just the right qualities of image and ink on paper to produce a really effective print.
In his work John takes a romantic outlook, a personal view of the landscape in order to create a visual narrative that will communicate the unique and special qualities of the subject.
