Aclaimed landscape painter, Tom Uttech receives inspiration from his many travels to Northern Minnesota, and the Quetico Provincial Park in Ontario, Canada. These large format photographs are a great compliment to his mystical paintings.
"Since these pictures are about nature and our role in it, the knowledge gained might grow into love of nature, and thus into concern for its well being. This concern could lead to action to protect nature and, therefore, ourselves. The best response to my paintings would be for you to…go straight to the wildest piece of land you can find and sit down to let it wash over you and tell you secrets." –Tom Uttech
