"On the Street"

The photography of Richard Hatter focuses on a variety of different themes including streetscapes, travel scenes, festivals, amusement parks, carnivals, the great American Southwest, and the Jersey shore, to name a few. Using color and design concepts, the work addresses those everyday images that many times appear as “photographic paintings” in the eyes of both the photographer and the viewer. The work is heavily influenced by the environment, nature, global changes, cultural symbols, and urban/rural life. The images strive to address the aesthetic and ethical implications of life as we know it conveying the light, color, shape, and excitement of the world around us.
