I use a variety of cameras, processes and medium to create images. The camera is just a tool. Composition, creativity, vision, luck and breaking the rules are more important in the making of an image. I envy painters and their ability to truly present their vision & interpretation of a scene. The camera has its limits.

I tend to use strong diagonal lines and a limited pallet of colors. I love converging lines, textures, shapes, colors, positive and negative space, vanishing points & how light wraps around shapes.
