Still Life with Mouse Cabbage, Melon and Cucumber - Limited Edition 25 of 100 Photograph

He works with a variety of mixed media, especially photography. He studied photography & filmmaking at PSU, PCC and Oregon College of Art and Craft. He works in many photographic formats such as pinhole, photograms and digital, using contact printing and alternative processes. His works have shown at 12×16 Gallery, Portland Art Center, and other galleries in Portland and the Pacific Northwest. My artwork takes a critical and often humorous view of political, religious and cultural content. Frequently referencing art history, philosophical perspectives and utilizing religious symbols, my work delves into the relationship between mainstream culture and images and fine art, creating challenging commentaries on our society. Often combining old technology with contemporary digital media, my work transforms familiar visual images into complex layered installations. Though I use a variety of mediums, materials and processes on each project, there is a consistent procedure and order anchored by specific themes, ideas and inspiration. Throughout the process of inquiry and experimentation with each project, new ideas form and can contain the catalyst for the next conceptual endeavor.
