BIOGRAPHY


My work explores the interface between two art forms: the art/sport of bodybuilding and the training that creates the athletic physique, and the art of photography. My subjects are seriously committed to the refinement of the human form through training, diet and life style. In the studio, I work with the subject to make images that are the raw material for subsequent digital work to achieve aesthetic objectives. The objectives range from highly abstract to narrative such that some images are pure studies of the physique, while others place the physique in an interpretive context. Digital alteration ranges from minimal through photo-collage. With the exception of the portraits, most of the works are not primarily intended to be viewed as pictures of particular individuals. Rather, the physique is presented as an object of beauty, quite apart from the personality of the individual who inhabits it. I was honored to have a piece accepted for the Nude International 2004 and two accepted in the 2007 show and have worked with a number of models in portfolio development.

i've been collecting the work of j.c. norton for a while now, and although they show very well on this and his website, you really (REALLY) should see them in person. the colour, clarity and care he puts in to every one is just amazing. his imagination never fails to floor me, working mythological subjects, personal pieces, and his 'signature' physique shots all in the greatest detail. he's a very very talented guy. take some time and really enjoy the works, then ask about actually collecting them. as a bonus!! they're ACTUALLY AFFORDABLE!! you will not be dissapointed! .
