For some reason it has seemed more important the past few years to look more closely at what is near, at my feet, what I can reach out and touch. Sometimes, I bend my creaky knees, put my face in the dirt or look under the trees. Iím trying to pay attention to those things that often go unnoticed because they are not beautiful or grand enough.

The intention of this work is to draw your attention to what I believe is the beauty of the everyday and the ordinary that we often let slip past us unacknowledged.

The Process
Image Capture is by Nikon professional digital cameras or scans from 35mm or medium format film negatives saved as digital files.

Archival Digital Prints (Dry Prints) are printed with quad black, hex black or color pigment inks on archival papers with professional inkjet printers.

Polymer Photogravures are produced by images transferred to steel plates coated with a photo sensitive polymer solution, exposed by light, developed with water and printed with oil based inks on fine art papers. Running the plates through an etching press under high-pressure on dampened papers prints these images.

Papers used in all prints are 100% rag, acid free, fine art papers chosen for their archival quality and ability to provide the highest degree of permanence.
