Introduction
Print Purchases
All works shown on this website are for sale unless sold out. My artworks are, in general, sold in editions of 3 or 6. With some works the size is variable and there may be a choice of paper. Currently I am using Ilford’s 310gsm smooth rag paper for my archival pigment prints, but I am open to some alternative papers. I prefer to sell my work finished and framed but prints are also available. My recent work is digital but my earlier work, b&w and colour, may also be available as an original darkroom print. Please contact me and we can discuss the piece or pieces that you are interested in and the price.
My Work
Please refer to the ‘Bio Information’ (also on the Home Page) for a brief biography and my curriculum vitae.
During my art studies at San Francisco State University, I concentrated on photography, printmaking, film, and sculpture. They remain strong influences in my work. As this website will indicate, my practice involves an ongoing connection with changing ideas and an exploration of the medium. I have worked both as a taker and a maker of photographs and I agree with Frederick Sommer’s statement - There is no distinction to be made between what we invent and what we find.
I love this medium; it suits my visual art interests. Photography’s implied connection with reality is something I enjoy working with and questioning. A photograph, no matter how casually or carefully it may be made or taken, is a constructed image. Its relationship with reality is conditional (there is no sound, no movement, no heat or cold). The image is a two-dimensional facsimile of a moment in time that can be enjoyed for itself or manipulated to speak in alternative ways.
