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. Become 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 deeper and capable of capturing my vision revealing my enthusiasm 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. Rather, I now present my images printed and mounted on canvas and varnished to create a more immediate viewing experience.
