David Doubley developed
a strong interest is photography in the early 70’s while pursuing
a degree in electrical engineering at Wayne State University. Later
after getting his engineering degree he applied to the arts school
graduate program and obtained his M.A. degree in photography. Photography
offered a striking mix of science and art that he pursues, as an advocate,
to this day.
During the 70’s and 80’s he participated in numerous
local and state of Michigan juried exhibitions, participated in
group exhibitions, and has had one-man exhibitions. He has taught
photography at all levels from children at community centers to
classes at university.
Of particular interest is the work David has done to promote the
very technical photographic process called dye transfer which is
no longer supported by Kodak. He has self published a dye transfer
manual, simply titled “The Dye Transfer Process” which
many consider one of the most thorough on the process. For several
years he taught two-week summer seminars, on dye transfer, on Martha’s
Vineyard island, for the now defunct Martha Vineyard’s School
of Photography.
As you will see from
the web site David’s work is eclectic and varies from fine
arts to commercial in his pursuit of self-expression. The work shown
is representative of his total work. The work itself is a personal
expression in photography and is not necessarily for sale as fixed
works of art.
