Richie Bittner is a self taught artist and digital photographer. He moved to Washington County in 1989 via a 5 year stint on Martha’s Vineyard. A self proclaimed Luddite, it was In 1991 that a client in NYC dragged him kicking and screaming into the digital world so that they could work on design projects through the new medium of e-mail. He was hooked and has spent the last 16 years in the world of digital design. Richie & his wife Lynne started Wildflower Graphics in 1997, incorporating traditional artistic technique with digital art creation.
"Photography has changed how I see the world. I see in the common and everyday, both joy and sadness, beauty and corruption, mystery and evidence. The challenge is to observe the fascinating details of the common place, and capture a moment in an image thath leads the viewer to a moment of reflection or introspection. Where that thought leads from there is beyond me, but hopefully it leads to a greater appreciation of our place in the world."
