Artist Statement
Much of my photography over the past 50+ years has been focused on capturing “moments-in-time”. Whether it was a sporting event, a wedding, or even a landscape, I became very good at “taking” a great picture – very much left brain – a very technical orientation. For the past 5 years, I have been transitioning from “taking pictures” to “making photographs” – works of art. Switching from my left brain analytical thinking to my right brain creative thinking. My photographs now utilize the various “elements of artistic design and composition” (light, shadow, color, shapes, lines, texture, patterns and perspective) to help me see the world differently; see the beauty that exists if I slow down and take it all in. My choice of subjects is quite varied but the creativity, preparation, and process for each photograph are the same: utilize the creative tools on my artist’s palette to capture an interesting image that will show the world in a different way and hold the viewers’ attention just a little bit longer.

In addition to taking and publishing photos for various town and charity events over the years, I also donate and sell my photographs to raise additional $$$ for charitable organizations and fundraisers.
