Artist Statement

I am creating images that will make you think, wonder, and look at the many facets of life, nature, and the everyday objects around us with a different perspective.

I start with a single image that I have photographed; manipulating it using the computer and various applications, sometimes adding elements from other photographs that I have taken. It is important for me to only use my own photographs, as it makes the work completely my own. I rarely know exactly where I am going to go when I start my creative process. The best way to describe it is that I experiment with the image until I feel I am heading in the right direction for that particular image or vision.

I manipulate my photographs to give viewers a different outlook on what is around us. I look at the images I have captured and imagine beyond what I see to something other than the obvious. Anyone with a cell phone can take a Snapshot, or someone with a Good Eye can capture a moment or the sense of being with their subject. I go beyond those with my imagination and interpretation of how I view a particular scene or subject.

There is no particular meaning or sense to my work, other than it makes you look at the everyday in a different manner.
