The Road Taken

ARTIST STATEMENT:

Long ago, alone, I walked in the coolness of a marble lined corridor, ambled along a portico pierced by the sharp light of a summer afternoon.

Sometimes lost in the fog of time. Our paths then joined.

A simple dirt road bathed in the misty morning light of a warm summer day.

A trail kissed by the setting sun in the winter chill of a snowy wood.

Our paths now joined,

We journey together till the end of time. 

ABOUT THE ARTIST:

Following in the footsteps of Dad and Uncle Walter, my first photos were family events, holiday snaps, birthdays, vacations at the shore, Thanksgiving dinners, a family trip to Marseilles, France.

A camera was a means of recording the world around me as I passed through it.

Before long, I discovered photography allowed creative expression, a means of telling a dynamic story in place of a static moment in time. I seek the images that draw people in and allow them to add their own experiences to the narrative.

Often, I have in mind the image I wish to capture and find something completely different in the viewfinder; everchanging sublime light and shadow playing across shape and form saturated with subtle colors marked by a flash of vibrant red, green, yellow or blue.
