Courte biographie
Welcome to the author page of Daniel and Denise Ankele. We publish art, genre and Christian books! Most of our books contain a biography or interesting facts page about the artist. We love art history, primarily from the visual perspective. Our goal is to visually present as much of an artist's work in one book as possible. We digitally restore many of the images we include in a book, while maintaining the integrity of the artwork. Please think of our books as a "coffee table book" for the Kindle; or whichever device you are viewing it on. Enjoy!

We are a husband and wife team who love to work and spend time together. Whether photographing landscapes and wildlife or designing an art project, our collaborations are the most rewarding. We met in college and both graduated with a BA in photography. I am the extrovert, while Denise is the introvert, it's a near perfect match! (nobody's perfect). Our travels together have covered over 2/3 of the United States and we are blessed to live on the California Coast. [retrieved 11/28/17 from Amazon.com Author Page]

This is a delightful collection of 40 reproduction photographs depicting Indian life in the South Western United States.

The book starts off with a small biography of Adam Clark Vroman, which explains that Vroman started experimenting with photography in 1892. He sold his rare book collection in order to open a store in Pasadena that sold photography equipment, books and stationary. Vroman never sold the photographs he took, preferring to give them to travelling companions with similar interests. Interestingly, Vroman's bookstore still operates in Pasadena.

Incidentally, a quick search via the Internet reveals a link to Vroman with more details of his life and photographs at the California Museum of Photography. Even in these financially troubled times, the book store still flourishes.

The photographs shown are a small glimpse into the everyday life of Hopi and Zuni people. They are depicted going about there every day business, some are in poses and there is even a photograph showing the involvement of the hair (see cover photograph). For me this was a delightful way of spending an hour or so, looking at the photographs and seeing what other data is available on line. Fascinating!
