About

Keith Michael Cossey is a fine art photographer and image-based artist. He enjoys exploring the multi-dimensions of photography as a creative outlet. His artistic vision is expressed through the creation of limited edition prints that are imaginatively inspired and technically excellent. The selection of subject, focus, light and composition are important in capturing the image in-camera. The captured image is one step in Cossey's creative process of working the "raw" material presented by his environment. He crafts colour, tone and contrast to communicate his emotional and spiritual response to the subject matter. The result is a projection of his perceptions, interpretations and experiences. Cossey prints his own work with professional inkjet printers using high quality, archival paper and pigment-based inks. He mats and frames to exacting standards. Certificates of Authenticity accompany each limited edition print.
