My art is not entirely photographic but entirely based on photographic files of my taking. It is not entirely digital since many files are taken originally from slide film. The best description, however, is that of a colorful abstractive whimsical layered blend - derivative and surrealistic as an output of Photoshop.
It’s all about enhanced color, drama, light, fantasy, movement, emotion as my original photographs transition from realistic presentation to an almost abstract derivative surrealism. I want others to dance in an emotional re-discovery of my unforgettable experiences. Each image is a unique single edition work printed on Kodak metallic photographic paper laminated directly to UV filtering museum quality acrylic and backed by another opaque layer of acrylic – an expensive risk-ridden process. The end result is a frameless, three dimensional, very high gloss production with manually polished edges that seem to lift away from the wall in space. |
