About me
I am a combination artist and digital photographer in Birmingham, Alabama, specializing in very artistic photos and fine art oil and watercolor paintings of a classical realistic style. My goal is to capture the very classic  natural beauty of the models.  I exhibit often in art galleries and have been published. I do very limited and select TFP/TFCD work, with models who can contribute to either my portfolio or art work.   My Fine Art web site can be viewed at:

http://www.olenpruitt.com/

Most of my photography is interior work in a combination art/photography studio fully equipped with professional soft light boxes, etc., and numerous backdrops.    Many of the photos are used as references for fine art oil paintings.  I have been fortunate to have worked with some outstanding models and hope to work with many more!

Note to other artists:  regardless of the technical skill levels, the defining and basic difference between a skilled artist and a skilled craftsman is the ability to create.  Most artists are inspired by other artists, but simply copying removes ones self from the artistic creation process. I spend a lot of time developing my ideas and creating my photographs to be used as references for MY art work.  I do NOT ever under any circumstances grant permission for other artists to use MY copyrighted photos for their art work.

I wish I was closer as well. I love modeling for paintings. I did it for dozens of book covers as a child, I always loved seeing how it turned out, so genuine, with more feeling than a photograph...
