Sometimes I have an idea where I am going and sometimes it’s an intuitive free-fall. Sometimes hours of work result in nothing. Lots of art and art history is in my head that influences and/or inspires…but there is no script and I make it up as I go along. Manhattan continues to be vital raw energy that I love to visit and return home exhausted. The world in front of my lens is my palette and taking the picture is the first pART of my creative journey or process. It is how I see and not what I see…because I choose my composition, perspective, focus, depth-of-field, and exposure…and then in the digital darkroom I may create beyond what I captured.
