About the Artist
Portland, Oregon-based photographer Stu Levy creates images that explore and celebrate the natural landscape. Many of his images focus on the Columbia River Gorge region in Washington and Oregon, near his home. He notes, “The landscape, however, is only my stimulus or point of departure. I ask the question, ‘What else is the landscape,’ and it is the ‘what else’ that I try to photograph.”Stu Levy became fascinated by photography as a child. He was a photographer for his high school and college yearbooks, and became a medical doctor. In 1979, he attended a workshop in Yosemite National Park taught by the famous photographer Ansel Adams (1902-1984). Levy went on to teach at the Ansel Adams Workshops during the 1908s. He lives in Portland, Oregon, and has led photography workshops on the Oregon Coast since the 1980s.
