Artist Statement
My work draws heavily on the traditions of the photographic masters of the last century. I explore the pure qualities of the photographic eye, using lines, shape, geometry, and the quality of light to capture the essence or mood of a scene. At the same time, my images are about the intangible emotional places that photographs can take us – a quality that is both longer-lasting and harder to define than a conventional photograph. In essence it’s about heightening the viewer’s introspection – connecting with people in a universal way so that each viewer is able to recognize a part of his or her inner self.
