About Me

MySpace Trains MySpace Smiley Signs Dolls Generator Ascii Converter Dancing LinesI am an accomplished fine art photographer, designer and costumer living and working in London. My work concentrates on the photographic Nude, beautifully hand toned. My work has been collected by The Polaroid Collections, The Henry Buhl Collection and the Beth Rudin- Dewoody Collection among others. My studio, OrchisArts, makes contributions yearly to breast cancer organizations. I have uploaded both pics and video to my profile. Please visit those areas, and also be sure to visit my website to learn more about my work: ( www.martincooperphoto.com )

My Interests

The Nude as a genre and any work that is figurative based, fine art photography, the process of making art, polaroid, classical architecture, painting, making costumes, the female pelvis, anything 19th century, what makes people do what they do, excellence...

I love Maillol and Lachaise sculpture, Art Deco, Gustavian furniture and Alma-Tadema paintings. I think there's something very special about Odd Nerdrum's work. Jane Campion's early films. There's such poetry in it all. Photography is probably the last thing that I look at for inspiration.

I'd like to meet:

photographers, life/art models, artists, musicians and composers, creative thinkers, old friends...people who love passion and virtuosity in their life! I have a BIG collaborative spirit and love collaborating with other like minded and aesthetically minded artists and models.

We're new to London (ex New Yorkers) and would love to meet others here who are involved with the London art scene.

MODEL SEARCH: I am currently casting models for my new series on the Human Pelvis. This is a new series where I explore why the Pelvis is the most fascinating and controversial bone in the human body. If you feel that you have an interesting waist/ hip expression and would like to be part of this body of work, please visit my model- search page to learn more about the project.
