I found the buildings in Prague to be particularly interesting. The photos I took inspired me to express the feeling, as a painter might have painted it many years ago. I also wanted to show the photo as a pencil sketch for a companion piece – ‘Two visions of how an artist centuries before may have shown this part of the city’. What you see is a combination of my imagination coupled with my photography and photoshop skills.
I believe that what we feel and see in our imagination creates ART. Art is not just pretty photos or drawings but that which is revealed from within. I photograph and add to the image as I see it within my imagination or as it appeals to me.

Klaus Bohn Artist Bio
After graduating from the University of Saskatchewan, I accepted various freelance photography assignments which led me to open my own studio in Moose Jaw in August of 1975. Happily the business became successful and I continued to take classes from esteemed photographers of my choice.
My mentor’s motto was: “If you want to learn more about photography, teach photography”. I took his advice and in 1984 started teaching photography skills and techniques to various studio owners and some of their staff members.
In 2000 I moved to Victoria B.C. and opened a photography studio with my two talented sons. In 2006 I began writing and, at present, have published 5 books.
I now work out of my home studio and have the opportunity of traveling to 3rd world countries. Photography is my profession. I love what I do and having the opportunity of meeting so many great photographers from around the world gives me a life full of joy that I enjoy sharing with others…
My brand is “feeling more deeply about photography”!
