About

There is a truth that exists beyond the illusion of flesh hidden from the eyes of a casual observer.

​I began as a zone system black and white photographer. Ansel and Minor photos were mounted on either side of my enlarger. I became an expert darkroom worker and was rewarded with exhibits in European salons. Yet I knew there was more that could be revealed. I packed up my darkroom and focused on ‘seeing’ rather than ‘looking’ and searching for solutions.

The heart of my journey has been feeling the resonances, experiencing the rhythms, and becoming a tuning fork of perception that dances with ‘truth.'

‘Thrice have I seen the full moon room sitting on a rock in the forest deep. Behold the pearlescent streamside foam whose frothy beauty doth make me weep.’ I stand, spread my arms, and melted into the wind.

Sometimes, I succeed.

As the quality of the digital process became more profound and I became capable of capturing my vision and revealing my enthusiasm, which now translated into action, I fully embraced digital capture.

I no longer present my images on paper, trapped by a layer of reflective glass. This glass presents a barrier establishing a divide that removes the viewer from a connection. Instead, I present my images printed, mounted on canvas, and varnished to create a more immediate viewing experience.
