Inspired by both the Pictorialism photo movement and the Luminism painting movement, Sincock's new color work aims to step beyond the realistic documentary nature of straight photography. To do this, he draws upon his experience and vision from the traditional photographic darkroom and other artistic training to build images, which evoke nostalgic feelings and memories for the viewers. In the digital darkroom, Jim manipulates the images by burning, dodging, masking, and adding textures to create the vision he has for each scene. "This series of color landscape photography marks a notable shift in the way I have photographed the landscape for the past thirty years. Up until recently, my work has primarily been large format black and white photography and I’ve used traditional processes such as film, wet plate collodion, gelatin dry plate, and paper negative. My new color work enables me to continue my exploration of traditional and experimental processes and imagery using digital tools and technology. My current photo studio resides in a wonderful old factory building in Racine, Wisconsin, which has been the source of much of my recent industrial photography."
