about the artist

Through my friend and teacher, Israeli artist, Ya'acov Aloni, I have learned to look inside everyday objects to find unusual forms that, in and of themselves, make wonderful digitial images. My photography is centered on small portions of water, plants and buildings. Within lies a separate beauty, expressed in pleasing colors, lines, movements and shapes.
Only minor adjustments have been made from the first impression of the object, taken with a Canon Powershot SD990IS.
The images are then carefully gicleed on museum quality, 90% bamboo, acid-free, archival fine art paper.
These images transcend the physical objects that originally inspired them, and often remain unrecognizable.
The results often look like abstract paintings and not photographs at all.
