I enjoy using a camera to translate my visualization into reality on paper. Visualization is defined as the ability to see in the "mind's eye" the finished work before actual application. It is the creative process of images transitioning from the realm of the reactive and contemplative to the conscious and deliberate. An element of surreal gives the viewer a different perspective on the subject, removing the literal and getting down to the essence of conveying the energy of the subject. For me, the image begins when the work goes beyond merely representing reality and enters the realm of personal expression. My methods are meant to be intentional, whether in the camera or post processing.

An Apple a Day...



The juxtaposition of the apple and graffiti caught my eye as I was wandering some streets one day. I found it an odd pair yet I also felt that I was looking at someone's purposeful piece of artwork. I like the loader's platform that leans against the rough wall and if you look closely, there's a "bite" taken out out of the platform on the right...like a bite out of an apple. An intentional placement of the apple???!!! And the touch of graffiti for me adds an another element of art. I was enrapt with the image.
