My photography has been evolving for over 45 years. At age 10, peeling the back off my first Polaroid Swinger print grabbed hold of my spirit. I’ve been pursuing the photographic image ever since. During the 1980s I worked in Hollywood building photo-composites for the movie and music industry. There I met and got to print the images of several notable art photographers.
I often create series of images, usually consisting of 6 to 12 photographs. The series are the results of exploring where I find myself. I quiet my mind. It is just me and my camera. My eye is looking for a balance of light and shapes to emphasis the mood of the surroundings. When I am photographing, I am so "in-the-moment", that it is often after the fact that I discover what I have truly captured. The next step is to develop the style for the image(s) as my mind’s eye saw it. The styles of the photographs are generated when I edit the images.
My photographs come from the heart, from exploring the environment I find myself. My photographs begin in delight and often ends in wisdom.
