Alison Bour

Alison Bour started the formal study of photography in 2008, and after one Photoshop class, quickly fell in love with digital artistry. She creates by combining a variety of techniques and programs and often uses one or more designs as a springboard for additional work. Lately, she’s been saving images so she has a way to trace her finished abstract pieces back to the original camera shot! She loves to create traditional art, from nature and flowers to dancers and other performers. Yet if she’s been away from abstract work for too long, it calls her back.

Along with her continual search for more digital art tools, Alison continues to improve her photography, has volunteered as a photographer for the Humane Society of Greater Dayton, and is currently moving into portrait work.

Her artwork has appeared and placed in juried gallery shows, including the PA Center for Photography, the Troy-Hayner Cultural Center, Dayton's Art in the City, Dayton Society of Artists, and Middletown Arts Center, where her image of a Dayton Contemporary Dance Company dancer recently won first place; the same image won an honorable mention at the Evandale Arts Center's outdoor exhibit. She is a member of the Dayton Society of Artists and the Springfield Museum of Art, and shows her work at the Art Encounters gallery at Front Street where she also sells cards,
