Artist's Bio
Michael Dougherty's work provides a glimpse into the beauty of the landscapes and the life of wildlife in NW Arkansas. He seeks images with long tonal scales animated by low angle light. His works range from area wildlife to landscapes to wild flowers. His work has been displayed and sold in 4 states. "People have often said they like my photography because it is emotional. I seek moments in time and light that tell a story about my subjects. My hope is to help people share the beauty that is NW Arkansas."
He and his wife Mandy live on 21 acres adjacent to the Ponca Wilderness (with their cat, chickens, and ducks).
