The Beauty of Artistic Licence

In the 1920s if you wanted a photograph in color, it had to be colored by hand. Two artists took this approach and captured the beauty of the landscapes and wildlife around them. The first of which was Asahel Curtis located in the Pacific Northwest. NPR ran a story capturing the artistic licence he took with adding color.



The second was William M. Finley whose work helped create the west coast's first wildlife refuge.



Last but certainly not least in the worth a look and listen category is Lizzie Wright Super Spaceship's song capturing the soul of the Ozarks and the rivers that make it up in her tune Ozarkia.
