Brenton Hamilton

Hamilton's style of work includes mixing numerous medias such as gum arabic washes, gold and silver leaf, and white gouache. His images are composed of mostly acquired photos that deal with the human anatomy, astronomy, botany, and ancient Greece and Rome. I think that the cyanotype process gives his images a timeless look that works well for the subject matter. I was mostly drawn to his work, though, by how seamlessly he matches up the parts to make the whole. While I can tell they are a collage of images, the style in which he prepares the collage makes it work as a singular image.
