JASON ARUNDELL
Jason Arundell is a professional fine art photographer based in Melbourne Australia. His works are enchanting, beckoning you closer, coaxing you to stay in a dreamy ethereal place. His subjects, animal or human, are often self-contained, delicate yet strong. In an era that exalts modern photography his classical aesthetic is unashamedly tender and beguiling.
In November 2013 he received the endorsement and recognition of the most respected names in Photography achieving the coveted 'Honor of Distinction' in the 8th Annual Black and White Spider Awards. While "Stag" was a highly praised 2013 Winner in the Nature category a further four of his photographs achieved nominations in their respective categories, Fine Art, Wildlife, Silhouette and Architecture.
