Biography
In studying for my BFA in Art with a major in printmaking I was classically trained in all forms of the discipline. After graduation I entered the pre-press commercial printing world transitioning from mechanical to digital presses. Eventually my natural design workflow included Photoshop to plan my compositions and retouch photographs. Once I retired from advertising, without deadlines or commissions, I was able to expand my skills and really explore the artistic advantages of adjustable, interactive layers, and pursue my own subject matter. I thought I would transfer my images to traditional media, but realized that the art was in the planning. Slavish copying to traditional media was not my inclination and I found it stifled my creativity. It seemed an unnecessary step as I had already perfected my images. It was not long before I was challenging myself to stop relying on photographic pixels altogether and start creating images from scratch. Tweaking programs to do my bidding is a new way of creating, but I still I use a 27" display as my canvas and a standard mouse as my brush. My realistic images, in particular the Anachronisms Series, comment on the transition from analog to digital in everyday life.
