THE BEGINNING…Photography
My love of photography began in the late ’70s during college. I found myself drawn to capturing the world through my 35mm camera and watching images come to life in the darkroom. Developing and printing film felt like pure magic. In those moments, I discovered a deep passion that marked the beginning of a lifelong creative journey. Though photography never became my profession, it has remained an important part of my life.
NEXT…Polaroid Transfer Art & iPhoneography*
For many years, I hand-colored photographs and experimented with Polaroid Transfers and Emulsion Lifts. But with the purchase of an iPhone in 2011, and the discovery of creative apps, a new artistic journey with digital imagery was born. I began experimenting and playing with these apps and quickly learned that the creative possibilities were endless. My earliest iPhoneography works were created entirely on the iPhone.
*iPhoneography is the art of capturing and editing photographs exclusively using an iPhone or iOS device.
PRESENT DAY…Digital & Mixed Media Collage
For more than 20 years, I’ve been immersed in the world of digital art, with the iPad serving as my canvas for the past decade. Recently, my creative path has led me to the tactile world of mixed media collage. This new direction feels like a natural extension of my digital work, as both mediums involve the intricate process of building layered visual elements. My digital collages often contain 50 or more layers, while my analogue pieces tend to be more restrained—reflecting the nature of each medium. This shift into analogue has become an exciting and meaningful part of my artistic journey.
My deepest hope is to create art that is authentic and meaningful.
