‘the small pond’ Reflection, disintegration, reformation. Visual planes fracture and recreate impossibilities. Surrounded by structures that soundly hold their purchase, the water breaks up what is perceived to be real and solid - as if there is a top-side world of form and the counter-world in the pond.

Beauty Not Stilled, a view into the changing forms of beauty as flowers bud, blossom fully, and then slide past their prime bloom. A meditation on the beauty in decay.

These examples of my work include unique b&w photos solarized, toned, and developed with degraded chemistry which are then drum scanned and digitally printed into small editions.

Next: view of editing and composing scanned images on computer.

Above: Ravishment by Beauty a construction of analog color prints made with old box camera with light leak and occluded viewfinder. Literally ‘point and shoot.’
