I consider photography interpretive by nature: the original subject being just one of many elements that influence the way a final image appears. |
|
|
|
As a visual artist, I continually choose the level of interpretation of what I see. |
|
|
|
Whether my work appears to be real or surreal, literal or abstract, this interpretation, however subtle, exists as a common thread guided by my ideas, emotions, and creative energy. |
|
|
|
By using subject, light, equipment, and process, I've attempted to construct what can be thought of as a photographic language. |
|
|
|
As with a spoken language, the challenge of photography is to continually learn new "vocabulary" that will in turn allow the range of my expression to grow. |
|
|
|
Expression that exists, not in reality captured, but in reality created. |
