Photos By: Edward James Manning
Edward Manning, an American of Irish/English descent, has been a creature of the lens since his first 35mm was given to him an early age. Born December 18, 1977 in an area encapsulated by the natural elements, Edward drew a kindred friendship with solitude and quiet. Artistic talent was handed from his mother, and his life became drawn by many painters and photographers. Following the likes of Andrew Wyeth, and later the photography of Ansel Adams, Edward found a sense of solace in their work that breathed American Idealism, character, imagination, and virtue.
Edward is currently working on a new creative project coming out in 2020, traveling around the country in a teardrop trailer, finding new secrets to capture on camera, and keeping his favorite feline, Eli, well fed.
"I don't really have studios. I wander around people's attics, out in fields, in cellars, anyplace I find that invites me."
-Andrew Wyeth, American Painter and Icon
