Jeffrey Krolick earned an MFA in sculpture and worked for many years as a jeweler, metalsmith and sculptor, exploring how composition can unify disparate materials and seemingly contradictory conceptual themes. For the past 18 years, photography has been his preferred medium for discovering/uncovering these relationships in the seemingly mundane scenes of everyday life and the natural world. Jeff's work has been recognized and honored by awards from the Silver Eye Center for Photography and the Society for Contemporary Photography. International Photography Awards selected him as Fine Art Photographer of the Year in 2005 and nominated him for a prestigious Lucie Award. In the winter of 2007, he was a winner in Jen Bekman's Hey, Hot Shot! international photo competition. He received an Oregon Arts Commission Fellowship in 2008. Jeff lives in Ashland, Oregon with his wife.
