Larry Melious Lobby Exhibit

April 1, 2023 @ 10:00 am - April 30, 2023 @ 4:00 pm

After 19 years of running a commercial photography business in Willits California, Larry and his family moved to Salt Spring Island in 2004.  From 2004 to 20013, he was a member of the Salt Spring Studio Tour with his gallery on Bullock Creek Road.  Larry was a member of the Coast Guard Auxiliary Unit 25, serving as unit leader for 4 years and also the Director of the Emergency Social Services.  Larry was also president of CUPE 788 at SD 64 until he retired 2 years ago.

Over the years, his work has evolved from black and white commercial work to digital interpretations influenced by the years of working with historic alternative photos that passed through his business.  “I love the warm and romantic look of the old tin types and daguerreotypes”.  Those old processes created a unique look via their primitive and sometimes dangerous technologies.  With the advent of digital imagery and post camera processes, I can safely dabble in that same image interpretations.

“I look for the soft, fleeting light that appears out of the corner of the eye and is there for those who are aware and prepared.  When it comes to me, I raise my camera, give thanks and squeeze the shutter. All of my images are archival hand prints signed by me.”

Alternative sizes are available upon request.

Viewable 10am-4pm and before any evening programming.
