“Pataphysics is the science of imaginary solutions?and will describe a universe which can be-and perhaps should be-envisaged in the place of the traditional one.” -Alfred Jarry
From 1999 – Current: I have been shooting in digital and doing a lot of self portrait work, shooting with models and GLBT events ranging from being the photographer at transgender events to burlesque shows. The self portrait work stems a lot, from permanent injuries, I have from a car accident, to my back , neck and hip resulting in arthritis & degenerating discs among other issues. In retrospect it’s rather funny to me as because of my condition I actually have a conflict with the camera in doing self -portrait work or being photographed. However, in the stages I feel safe and I am going for being free.

Lost to the emotional bombs that you cannot find shelter from when they fall and explode in what is called home,
Senses awakened, awareness awakened, knowledge awakened and now I can see where it will lead before pouring my soul into a well that has no room
There are masks for each of us which is yours:
Someone told me today: “You have to celebrate the small victories”
The music filled the room & the senses flowed into emotional ecstasy.
