About Me: I use the extreme wide angle distortions of the round oatmeal box pinhole camera and the digital colorizations to create a series of visceral images that probe the unconscious, stepping away from the literal reality and choosing instead to seek an expressionism. Through successive pulling of curves, B&W values are replaced with color in separate channels that ultimately create the dreamlike state in the finished piece. Industrial sites and architecture are juxtaposed with the model in the camera and that juxtaposition triggers a response that I react to while colorizing. The resulting images range from the
absurd to the profound and from gender issues to politics. This work is rooted in 16th Century with the pinhole optics and combined with the 21st Century digital print manipulations. With its solarization-like tone reversals and
silkscreen-like color layering, these images are a hybrid of Photography and Digital Printmaking.

What Brought Me Here: I wish to exhibit my artwork and find models who will pose for me.
