Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery is extremely pleased to announce that Connie Rogers has been named as the Gallery’s new featured artist and she will now be promoted by the gallery for the next 14 days in the gallery’s Artist Showcase.
Connie is an award-winning artist and photographer based in Florida, USA. She was selected as 1 of the top twelve finalists in the gallery’s 30th Solo Art Exhibition Series. The placement in this competition qualified her work to be showcased in this feature.
Her Artist Showcase feature will be promoted to hundreds of major news outlets. In addition, the gallery will also be featuring and promoting her artwork in the gallery’s various social media networks for further exposure.
Below are Connie’s Artist Biography, Artist Statement and 5 of her photographs submitted to this competition.
As a California girl, Connie Rogers has traveled and landed in 5 different states before calling Florida her home. As a self-taught artist, photographer, and acrylic painter for over 22 years Connie believes everything we do is surrounded by art. ‘ART’ somehow speaks to our soul and has been proven to heal the mind.
Her photography is deliberate in its focus on color, beauty, and nature. She begins her morning with daily meditation. When she engages her lens, she doesn’t hear the chatter of others; she listens to the voice of just ‘that’ moment. She reminds herself of what Ansel Adams once said, “With his camera he comes across something that excites him emotionally, spiritually or aesthetically… he takes that perfect shot and prints exactly how it made him feel.”
Connie is passionate about choosing outdoor photo shoots, wildlife, clouds/mountains/ lakes, people, and celebrations. We all somehow come together when we touch and share a moment with others through the camera’s eye.
What inspires her work? Connie brings her camera every morning with her, whether exercising on the beach at sunrise or skiing 10,000 feet high in the Rocky Mountains because she believes many surprise opportunities exist to capture beauty. She hopes, one day, to publish her artwork in a ‘tabletop book’ for your home. She is an award winner of several contest in photography, digital art and acrylic paintings.

Here for my Solo Art Page, I've chosen examples of Beauty at the Beach. My motivation is to share with you my love for Mother Nature's sunrise, shadows, and never ending amazing colors, seamlessly placed perfectly at my camera's eye. Can you imagine what's missing - the sounds from chirping birds to the ocean roars.
