ABOUT

I've been taking photos since I got my first Instamatic camera in the early 80s. I graduated to an SLR camera at 11, and learned how to process black and white film and prints in my Dad's darkroom. 

​

I bought my first digital camera in 1998, and my passion for taking photos of abstract textures, peeling paint and decay really developed. For the first time, I could shoot photos of anything and everything without the constraints of film and developing costs, and I quickly built up a collection of images.

I started my own design business straight out of college in 1994, so I already had a computer and editing software. I learned how to edit images in photoshop, and through lots of trial and error I discovered a style of combining images to create abstract art.

​

I've always dreamed of being a full time artist. Design work pays the bills, but the freedom of authentic artistic expression is something I've decided to embrace while I still have time.
