Artist Statement "The Creative Life Many roads lead to living a creative life and using creativity to enhance your life and the people around you. Today, more and more creativity is bursting from every corner of our world. Much of it reaches us through one internet platform or another. The exploration of creativity has been a lifelong passion. Spanning more than 50 years and multiple disciplines. Photography while working as a safari guide, Photography, and Printmaking in art school. Once released into the "real world," commercial photography and graphic design lead to a focus package design, leading to product design. This has led to a 20+ year career in product development, furniture design, manufacturing, and digital content creation and direction. I turn back toward image creation, photography, and photo editing. My images reflect the places I travel to and my passions, like sailing, coffee, and architecture. I strive for simple compositions and then translate those into a "pop art" form. Using tonal separation, color enhancement, and building layers upon layers for a very "painterly" final look. Angled compositions can turn a simple façade into a much more interesting composition. Drawing the eye with unexpected angles and leading the viewer through the piece. Diptych and Triptych compositions can work well with this technique, as color can be created or changed to add visual interest. These techniques will undoubtedly allow for constant experimentation and can lead to entirely new visual outcomes."
