artist statement
Street photography is the inspiration for creating my lens based art and I’m rarely without a camera in hand. After putting down the “work cameras” that are used for real estate and portrait photography, I head out to the streets around me in the Bay Area looking for interesting subjects to photograph. Some of the work comes from traveling to other urban cities throughout the world to capture a different perspective. The fine art I create to print and exhibit comes from personal and documentary projects as well as urban landscape, travel and street photography.
