Profile
I’ve been taking photos, painting, and drawing since I was about 10 years old. Though painting and drawing give me the freedom to develop my own artistic style, I really enjoy photography most. The wet process is what I perfer to employ in photography because I can see a photographic image come into existence.
Though digital photography affords me a greater range of artistic tools to alter and manipulate my image, I get a joy out of watching an image appear before my eyes.
The wet process is a dying art and I want to do what I can to keep it alive.
I have a list of photo subjects lined up. Now, I have an opportunity to use a few rolls of 120mm film. My next subject will be cows or sheep. There are plenty of both in Menifee, CA. I’ll think about that one for awhile.

A Warm Embrace
Touching flesh with fingertips, / I caress a pretty face. / A yearning . . .
Untitled
Two precious hearts / On a cool summer night. / The moon and the stars / Are shining bright . . .
