Tillman Crane is a large format photographer specializing in platinum prints. Artist, teacher, philosopher and photojournalist, he has been professionally involved with photography for over 30 years. Known for his beautiful images of structure, from quiet corners to industrial giants, towering stones to carved effigies, Tillman combines his gift of seeing with craft built on years of experience.

Tillman has four limited edition books whose images work together to provide a glimpse of this artist’s world: Tillman Crane/Structure (2001), Touchstones (2005), Odin Stone (2008), and A Walk Along the Jordan (2009). For the discriminating collector, Tillman collaborates to create one-of-a-kind handmade books of platinum prints. Using full size negatives of your choice, these are printed on fine watercolor papers, then folded, gathered and sewn into an original piece of art.

Known for his easy going and fully committed teaching style, Tillman teaches workshops throughout the U.S. and U.K. His workshops are engaging, informative experiences which push and challenge participants beyond the confines of old patterns. If the variety or schedule of the 2011 workshop offerings does meet your needs, let him customize a one-on-one tutorial of your design.

Visit the Tillman Crane Gallery at 22 Pearl Street in Camden Maine, to see these beautiful prints. Open by appointment all year, gallery hours are variable from May through October. Call 207-230-0199 or visitwww.tillmancrane.com for weekly gallery schedule.
