photographs

 

I use my camera like a sketchbook. For me, these photos exist as records of things I saw and want to ponder. There is something in all of them that caught my eye and my imagination. Often some bit of the image works its way back into my drawings or sculpture. I invite you to enjoy them as an insight into my process.

The photos of India were taken during a trip in the winter of 2000.
