Balancing abstraction with realism, John Griebsch's artistry depicts familiar landscapes from a high perspective. The results are strikingly beautiful views of the earth from above as described in this Monograph:
"My series of aerial photographs shows grand scale, fine details and often a painterly sense of composition. I work with ambiguity of scale and the strong graphic quality of nature, and with the hand of man on nature."
"While the images present a sense of selective design applied to an extremely small but significant area of the vast landscape over which I fly, I find the need to make geographical sense of the earth, as well as to make visual sense of the photograph."The work has been exhibited in numerous solo and group shows; was awarded recognition in 2011 in the Palm Springs, California exhibition Earth Through a Lens; and resides in a host of corporate and private USA collections."
