Winogrand suggested that the photographic act was to find out what something looked like photographed. Callahan liked photography better than baseball because there were fewer rules. Tom Robbins tells us that the beauty of art is its uselessness. I wonder how it is that I see what I do and realize it is a gift of the muse, a gift that if I am paying attention will pay back with an interesting picture.
My pictures are the result of unexpected, incongruous, often ironic juxtapositions and relationships. I am endlessly entertained by what I see. I travel a fair amount; sometimes to interesting places sometimes not, but always pictures seem to be hovering. I especially love the way man marks his space and what happens visually as a result. My photography is about observation, with attention to color, detail, relationships, and layering. Humor is a major component.
I am a visual anthropologist.
