~Thicket~ Limited Edition Print: 1 of 20, in a series of prints in this year’s Yosemite Exhibition, entitled:
One Of Seven
In February of 2014, Yosemite National Park was declared one of the Seven Natural Wonders of North America. In this exhibit, you are invited to discover and explore Yosemite National Park like you’ve never seen before, through the eyes of the Artist, and learn what makes it one of North America's Seven Wonders of Nature.
The iconic Photographer Ansel Adams once said: “A good photograph is knowing where to stand.” Local Artist, Juan C. Mancheno couldn’t agree more. Being primarily a landscape digital artist in the most iconic regions of the U.S. have presented a very challenging and unique opportunity for Mancheno to set himself apart by documenting through the lens, those very same places in very unique and never before seen perspectives. Juan spends a considerable amount amount of time studying maps, hiking and climbing to the more remote areas of any well frequented region, in order to capture one of a kind images that are at once familiar, yet refreshing and interesting.
As a fine art visual artist, Juan’s feeling of self-satisfaction that he consistently experiences from his creative process is matched only by the gratification he undergoes when delivering to his clients a finished product that inspires the imagination, pleases the eye and presents the subject in a light and environment never to be repeated again. The main focus of Mancheno's artwork is in the Black and White medium.
Following in this tradition, the exhibit keeps with the classic beauty, contrast, and simplicity that comes from working in Black & White.
