AUTHOR
After more than 30 years as a sculptor my artistic curiosity put a digital camera in my hands. Today, pixels light and shadows are the tools of my chosen media. Of the many genres of photography I have chosen Landscape as my primary target with Street and Travel a close second. It is not surprising that forms, volumes, light and texture are the guiding principles of my compositions. I tend to favor tightly arranged elements in my photographs, sometimes to the point of abstraction. Although relatively new to this art, I intent to carve my own niche in the competitive and forever evolving world of digital image making.
