I began photographing seriously in 1994 and, in 2001, changed careers, entering the Master of Fine Arts program at the University of Houston. When I graduated in 2004, I joined the faculty at Earlham College in Richmond, Indiana, where I am Artist in Residence.
My photos are included in the collections of the Houston Museum of Fine Arts, the Center for Photography at Woodstock, Indiana University East, Ivy Tech Community College, the Richmond Art Museum, Reid Hospital and over 150 private and corporate collections.
Since moving to Indiana, my photographs have won numerous awards in juried competitions at the Richmond Art Museum, the Whitewater Valley Exhibition, the Swope Museum in Terre Haute, The Art Museum of Greater Lafayette and the Minnetrista Cultural Center in Muncie. During the same period, my work has been the subject of exhibitions at the Pendleton Art Center in Cincinnati, Gallery 308 in Muncie, Fleury Gallery in Houston, Earlham College and Ball State University. In 2006, Indiana University East staged a 10-year retrospective of my photography. My work may be viewed at: www.flickr.com/photos/waltbistline.
