Artist Statement

"The art of preserving time through the photographic arts has long fascinated my mind and occupies a great deal of my waking life. The box of the viewfinder is a structured limitation, inside which I find comfort and truth. Every image is art, as I freeze time and space, and both honor and remake reality through my lens. This is one of my greatest passions; seeing, creating, and working within the glorious confines of photographic imagery. This art is only as limiting as the technical skill and imagination of the photographer, which I have always found to be very enabling. Translating what I think I see, into what the viewer sees, is a challenging and rewarding pursuit that motivates and inspires me."
