Artist’s Profile
I have been capturing natural landscapes through photography for over 25 years, hoping to pass along my appreciation of the natural world in hope that others will be inspired to sustain and preserve that beauty for future generations. My work is all limited edition; signed and dated prints.
- Creating images with 4”x5” and 8”x10” view camera
- Developing images using Kodak paper
- Creating gray tones to convey a sense of form and texture and selenium tones to ensure permanence
- Printing images to archival standards
- Matting images on 100% archival acid free museum board
- Framing images in black metal to create contrast
