Sjur Roald, the Art of Portraiture

I follow daily the splendid work of Sjur Roald and I love all. Beyond his brilliant female and male artistic nudes that you will admire in these 2 articles, Sjur is also a great portraitist. I feel in each of his photograph his love and his tenderness, gentleness for the Woman.

When I asked him for a portraiture exhibition, he sent me 38 high resolution photographs ! Thank you my friend, what a lucky man I am ! So I have had to make a choice, this one. Let's admire :

Léa Michelle L'émoi

Very active in Facebook, I love since a long time her sure taste and her originality. I like the photographers she exhibits and I have never seen, what I find strange due to the number of our Artists Members here and all those I see daily for a next article.Léa is a beautiful and kind woman with a great talent to discover the photographs we are very numerous to like and love.

Since 2 months I am waiting Léa answers to my invitation to become UdA Art Editor... She told me so many :
- Yes ! Ok !! I want !!! I am busy but I come soon !
But... I am still waiting and crying... I am too impatient. Join us Léa !! It is so fun and easy to publish here in a total freedom, my dearest Léa !

Anyway, I wipe my tears, here is an example of her daily exhibitions which touch my heart :

The gentleness of Alecu Grigore

Alecu Grigore

"Kitty Cat Lina"

"Flipped Kitty"

Alecu Grigore is a 34 years old photographer (since 14 years he told me) who lives in Timisoara, Romania.

Not exclusively an art nude photographer as you'll see in his portfolios (don't miss his shots at Venise !), Alecu loves to play with the contrasts. The best examples are in the images above between the softness of the art models and the edginess of the location.

Add to this his great lighting, the right shadows at the right places, his creative compositions and perfect way to direct his art models and you'll say like me : "WOW !"

"Waiting"

I would have loved to tell you more about him but sorry, I just speak French and English (by the way, never hesitate to correct my mistakes !).

Anyway, it's a great pleasure to welcome such a talented photographer that we'll follow in his long and successful career !

"Stone Cold"

Some words about him :

"Alexandra starts it up"

From Milos Mashed :

"You have great eye to create art. Nice technique, great ideas behind them and a wonderful dept in images appears which create a class of your own.

Thank you for sharing your work and style with us. Congrats to you and to them for the wonderful body of work that you have presented here. I look forward to seeing more."

"Season Starter"

"Moonlight"

From Alina Vasilescu :

"I was once told I should never question the visions of a photographer. I am questioning your vision now.

I am puzzled, intrigued, confused and amazed at the same time, because I cannot put my finger on what it is that makes you tick.

I see women, I see skin, I see sensuality, yet again I am SURE that I see maybe the smallest piece of what you have seen. Bodies speak to you, skin obeys your eyes.
Congratulations would just be redundant here, so I am just going to advise you to keep unveiling yourself through your work."
