About the imagery:

While I enjoy and work with a variety of artistic media (colored pencils, oil-based pastels, etc...), I focus primarily on digital photography (no pun intended); with an emphasis on aerial and pin-hole work. I also produce original, "pure" digital creations and manipulations. Some of the software tools I utilize are Adobe Photoshop & Illustrator, TrueSpace (by Caligari), Bibble Pro, and others. I have grown especially fond of Digital Pinhole Photography. Pin-hole imagery tends to have dreamlike qualities, yet at the same time can be almost more real and meaningful that the sharp detail we are used to with lens-based photography. Many factors affect the visual properties of digital pin-hole images -- hole size, sensor noise, primary wavelength, etc... all interact in interesting ways to create the final image (keep on the look-out for my up-coming book on the subject). Vision is an interpretive process, that's why pin-hole photographs are often so much more appealing of a given subject than a regular photograph. Pin-Hole images naturally invite the mind to explore and make its own interpretations. Pinhole imagery strikes at the meaning of the word "photography" -- Ancient Greek for, "light writing".
