Afton Villa alley, study 1 Photograph - Limited Edition of 20

The skills I've learned as an analog film and digital photographer and advertising creative director are all utilized in my work. My early influences were large-format black-and-white photographers of the California Central Coast and the impressionistic landscape painters of the 1900s. My Southwest images begin as black-and-white photographs, from both negative and infrared digital images. I "abstract" the images and then paint them, using multiple thin layers of oil paint. Larger sizes are available by commission.
