David Young

David Young received B.A. and M.A. degrees in English at Kent State and a Ph. D. in English at Ohio State.  He began teaching in the English Department at IUP in 1968.  In 1961, his wife, Beverly, suggested buying a camera to take snapshots-an event which was to change his life.  He became an avid photographer with a number of exhibits in Ohio and Pennsylvania.  In 1978 he was invited to join the Communications Media Department at IUP to teach photography, a position he held until his retirement in 1989.  His works are in museums and private collections and his involvement with photography continues, mainly in the rapidly evolving field of digital photography.

Image photography is a very subjective medium to work with and is either very literal or very abstract.  David is combining these two processes to create one cohesive work.  This is of a literal object but they do not read as such when your eye first looks at this.  The contrast among these objects in both color and texture make this picture very appealing and balanced in color, texture, and composition.  An unusual and fantastic print of nature is right here our Gallery!
