Michael Gesinger received an MFA in photography from the University of Washington in 1978. His work has been exhibited nationally as well as internationally for more than thirty-five years and is part of numerous public and private collections. The photographs represented here are gelatin silver prints, except for those in the "COLOR" portfolio, which are available as archival ink jet prints. All silver prints are made by the artist in a traditional wet darkroom. Most photographs are toned and many are toned and hand painted.
