"The elegant photographs of Shelley Calton vacillate between their lucidity and the secrets that lie within. Her selective inquiry of the human form and various objects explores their relationship between intimate surroundings and the circumstances of the moment.Calton's images draw the viewer in with their sensual grace revealing a mood, a mystery, a memory that lingers...she starts a story the viewer must finish."

A native Houstonian, Calton attended Glassell School of Art. She has spent the last several years perfecting her sytle and printing technique. Utilizing all the qualities of medium format, she produces stunning gelatin silver prints that are selenium toned for a desired effect, as well as archival purposes.
