I regard myself as more of an artist than a photographer. I studied photography as a fine art in school and have extensive commercial experience in many aspects of producing imagery. I’ve earned my living from photography studios, advertising agencies, and prepress/print shops. My works are partially made possible as a result of this lifetime of experience in various technical imaging and creative design skills. They are also possible due to my drive to share this process of reproducing images which I call “Reconstructed Deconstructions”. I employ color correction, retouching, and composition techniques in wrestling the many individual photos into one cohesive image, which I expect becomes much larger in its visual impact than any one image alone could.
    My hope is that viewers of my pieces feel the largeness and change our world presents. The perception is that we think we see a steady large picture around us but in reality our visual impression of the world derives from the constantly changing and fleeting nature of sight. I strive to provide the viewer with the experience of piecing the image together in their mind, as I feel we do in real life: Our eyes skip around a scene or record the changes in a person’s face over time, and our mind’s eye puts it all together as a single interpretation.
