Kelli LK Haines works primarily
with 4x5 format photography, using a 1952 Crown
Graflex with slow-speed black and white film.
Straight photography can best describe her style.
Preferring to do the majority of her work in-camera
results in strong negatives, allowing for more
creativity in the darkroom. While the main focus
of her work is architectural landscape, she is
also known for her intensive portraiture. Also
a talented painter, Ms Haines has developed a
unique style of painted photographs.
A lifelong student of photography,
she also had as a mentor, noted photographer
Todd Webb. She was awarded grants by the State
of Maine to study at the Maine Photographic Workshops,
has exhibited throughout New England and the
Southeast and was the 2002 recipient of the Carina
Residency on Monhegan Island, administered by
MARC and the Farnsworth Museum in Rockland, ME.
Ms. Haines was formerly a
teacher of photography at CPAC of UMA in Lewiston,
ME. She is represented by the Lupine Gallery,
Monhegan, ME. and Galeyrie of Falmouth,
ME.
Upcoming shows in 2006 include
The Essex Center in Massachusetts with Copley
Masters, Mark Hayden and Ralph Bush
MONHEGAN ISLAND: A JOURNEY
is a culmination of the past three years spent
on Monhegan, with the majority of work completed
during June and July of 2002 when she completed
her residency. The book is in to be published
in 2006. Also in progress is a book of
portraits of Maine artists in their studios.
