Originally from Vladivostok, Russia, a city that lies only 62 miles from China and borders on the Sea of Japan, Gleb Tarassenko now resides in Dallas (TX). Over 15 years of professional experience and classic education in photo journalism gives Gleb freedom to explore natural wonders and express his artistic vision through his photography. He finds his inspiration in most beautiful places, such as major National Parks of the U.S., remote villages of Russia or unique sea shores of Pacific ocean. Gleb's collection of Beautiful American Southwest is as large and impressive as his images of a native Far East. Ever growing artist's portfolio and exclusive experience in landscape photography transformed into a passion for sharing his knowledge with others, and now Gleb offers exclusive seminars on landscape photography as well as workshops and consultations. His main body of work is exhibited in numerous places online and in galleries and private collections around the world.
