| This
new art style introduced by Robert Copple blends photo-realistic
wildlife painting and fine art landscape photography into
a single image that transcends the boundaries of the separate
disciplines: an image one step closer to reality than any
artist could render, yet beyond the realistic capabilities
of any photographer.
"When I find a perfect landscape that
captures the majesty and complexity of nature, I use a
medium format camera to capture the image. After the photograph is transferred to painting
canvas, I render each living element in accurate detail, as
if the animal or bird were passing through the landscape when
I photographed the scene."
Robert Copple is an advocate for nature. He creates living moments on canvas
that he hopes will inspire viewers to explore nature seeking more. His images
have been used by the Audubon Society, Nature Conservatory, Humane Society, Actors
and Others for Animals, Habitat for Humanity, Safari Club International, and
other organizations seeking to safeguard and preserve wildlife and our natural
heritage.
