Flashes & Strokes: a Tale of Two Mediums

Local Stories

An Artistic Voyage: exploring local creative and artistic works

The Influencers

The digital and traditional arts are thriving in Chicago. From newer, technology based media like photography and digital art to more traditional art, there is so much to see, explore and learn from in Chicago. Through our Flashes and Strokes series, we’d like to celebrate artists from both worlds: traditional and digital.

Organic, natural pieces make great accessories. I love drift wood – it's been places. I wonder what story these could tell. 📸#beppieseinenmostert . . #LivingDesignInteriors #livingdesign #livinginteriors #table #driftwood #coastalliving #architecture #carlsbaddesigner #lifestyle #dreamhome #interiordesign #remodel #lookup #color #art #thursdaythoughts #socallife #interiordecor #interiordesigner

First time shooting at a skate park, great learning experience and great people. Can't wait to stop by the pop up tomorrow.

Always experimenting with different focal lengths, time of day, and distances from subjects. The one thing I’m consistent with is a habit of keeping my depth of field as shallow as possible. ;-] . . . #artofchi #chitown #chicagogram #illgrammers #chigram #igerschicago #ourmoodydays #urbanandstreet #streetactivity #theimaged #moodygrams #gramslayers #tonekillers #choosechicago #rawurbanshots #mychicagopix #milliondollarvisuals #street_perfection #streetmagazine #streets_vision #urbanromantix #leagueoflenses #streetclassics #urbanphotography #depthobsessed #chicago #ourstreetdays #chicago #shotzdelight #eclectic_shotz
