Artists often depict landscapes to demonstrate the beauty of a location, but Steven Quinn would rather cut up images of lush scenery to craft some innovative art instead. Few can complain as these bullseye-inspired collages provide viewers with hip hypnotic imagery that’s visually more stimulating than a simple photograph of a mountain or a forest. The harsh contrasts in colors between autumn leaves and open green spaces also pop out at viewers, but the most interesting aspect about these target-like collages is their resemblance to old vinyl record covers.
Though this gallery only demonstrated Steven Quinn’s photo manipulating talents, he truly is an artist that does it all. He’s an illustrator, a photographer, a designer, an animator and a video editor. The man is essentially a one-person production studio and he’s equally talented at each discipline.
