Fine Art Photography
Influenced by a wide range of visual artists from Lee Friedlander to Orson Welles, I am drawn toward unusual elements casually juxtaposed against the mundane.
As a recent arrival to New Mexico, I am more attracted to ghost towns and decrepit gas stations than to the desert and mountains that attract many other photographers.
If there is a message in my work, it is one of continual bemusement at the often chaotic and seemingly haphazard patterns as people spread outward from the urban core, moving in all directions across the wilderness, erecting fast food emporiums, freeways and strip malls etched by the slow yet deliberate forces of an indifferent nature. ---
