Artist Bio:
Born in Everett, Washington, Michael David Walrond (b. 1986) is a talented emerging fine art photographer based in Seattle. His career began at a creative agency, specializing in styling, set decorating and design. In 2017, the creative director, Christopher Alain Everett, encouraged him to pursue his own art and gave him a Leica Dlux. He discovered film photography the following year when a friend and fellow artist sold him a Canon AE-1. Entirely self-taught, he has since been showcased in solo exhibitions in San Diego and New York, and group shows across the United States and Europe. His work has been published in P Magazine, Osphilia, Others Magazine, Lomography, Artizians Magazine, and Supersonic Art. His latest monograph, "SHDWSOFDUST: A 7 Year Anthology of Analog Photography Work," debuted in October 2023 with Snap Collective.
