Piar has been photographing in a variety of formats, both film and digital, for over a decade.  His work emphasizes the built environment, the natural environment, and the interaction of humans with the landscape.  His photographs are held in private collections and in the permanent collection of the Arts Clayton Gallery.  His work has also appeared in numerous juried shows, including Slow Exposures, the annual Newnan-Coweta Arts Association exhibit, and the inaugural Nature, Undisturbed show sponsored by the Southern Conservation Trust.  In addition to photographing, he does all of his own editing, printing and framing to maintain complete control over the creative process..  Daniel holds a bachelor's degree from Harvard and a law degree from Yale; he lives in Sharpsburg, GA with his wife and daughter.  For more information, please visit his website at www.piarphotography.com.   Show runs 5.5.2009 - 5.29.2009 Opening reception is May 7 from 5:30-7:30pm.  FREE   Below is shown Ladder by Daniel Piar, winner of the 2008 Juried Photography Exhibition of Arts Clatyon.
