The Evolution of Fine Art Photography

While L. Clifford Norager’s photography captures the essence of nature, his digital artistry draws out the latent beauty and energy in every scene. As a testament to the principles of true fine art photography, Norager’s images go beyond the traditional objective of photography and reach into a deeper poignancy untapped by the inartistic lens. Long regarded as merely a vehicle for chronicling newsworthy events and mundane family portraits, Norager’s fine art photography strives to connect with the spiritual power of the terrestrial landscapes in our midst.

The scenes captured in L. Clifford Norager’s “Innervisions” DVD swell with the prominence and measured creativity of the best fine art stock photography, but infuses the contemporary modes of art with a whole new level of imaginative vision. With its roots deep in the Victorian age, fine art photography has conventionally striven to incorporate the poetry of fine art with the candor of photography. The novelty of this expressive format was wildly popular at its inception, spawning fine art sales in markets that were previously untapped by the fine art scene. Art sellers recognized the trend in fine art sales and quickly stocked shelves with bulk fine art stock photography. But as the market was flooded with more and more fine art photography, the spark slowly dimmed.

Norager’s otherworldly scenes attempt to recapture the exciting nature of experimental fine art photography. By infusing familiar landscapes, animals and vistas with elements gleaned from astral influences and his own imagination, Norager creates a photo catalogue of a dream-like surrealist Utopia, never before seen by human eyes. But unlike the profiteering merchants, Norager’s goal is not to boost fine art and photography sales. Although the fine art photography contained within “Innervisions” is valued at over $200,000, Norager insisted upon pricing the DVD collection at $29.95. In this way, the soothing images and relaxing dreamscapes are able to reach a wider audience.

As an accompaniment to Norager’s original visions, each DVD includes two binaural soundtracks. A classically trained guitarist since age 8, Norager’s musical pieces are composed with the same artistic precision and creative expertise as his inspired photography. Combined, the sights and sounds from this enchanted land create a visual and sonic universe that has yet to be captured through traditional fine art and photography.

A visit to Norager’s majestic, tropical island inspired planet is worth far more than its retail price. With mind-opening, stress-relieving, awe-inspiring fine art photography and classical-inspired music, “Innervisions” is a true fine art investment.
