Feathers & Petals: Photographs by Dr. Allyson Hurley
Dr. Allyson Hurley, a dentist and fine art photographer from Bedminster, will exhibit her photographs at the library during the month of June. An opening reception will be held on June 2nd from 2:00 to 4:00 pm. The public is welcome.
Dr. Hurley is an award-winning photographer who thrives on the double life she leads with both of her passions. She has combined a professional proficiency in the use of photography in cosmetic dentistry with a personal passion for capturing and expressing the delicate balance between wildlife and nature. She likes to aim her camera at natural scenes in both her dental practice, where she creates natural smiles, and in her photography where she captures the natural landscapes and wildlife of her favorite places.
An accredited member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry and a certified professional photographer through The Professional Photographers Association, Dr. Hurley’s work reveals a love of color and light and how they affect the mood in her photographs.
The show provides a balance of images between flora and fauna. Her latest endeavor is to paint on her photographs with pastels to create mixed media pieces that are printed on watercolor paper. This new technique is perhaps even more like the creative process she goes through with cosmetic dentistry by taking basic beginnings and making something totally unique and beautiful out of it.
