The Lumaland series of digital prints portrays a landscape of light and color. It is a convergence zone where visual reality merges with the imagination.

Lumaland

Due to a stationary low in the Gulf of the Collective Subconscious caused by deteriorating environmental conditions on a global scale mostly cloudy with geometric shower conditions will persist into the future..This vector print was created from a digital photo taken in the summer of 2019 near Mount Index in Washington State. The concept behind the series is to juxtapose natural, geometric and spectral elements in a way that implies environmental change that won't go away.Once we change nature there is no going back.

Mostly Cloudy

The images in this series of digital prints were created from digital photographs taken in the Wild Sky Wilderness area of Washington State in the summer of 2021. I think of them as a kind of visual poetry that expresses the feeling of being there.

After a long, cold, dark, wet, coronavirus winter seeing the first spring flowers may induce a feeling of mild euphoria. It is in that most pleasant frame of mind that the Optical Garden collection of digital compositions was created. It is a visual expression of hope, beauty, appreciation of nature and the positive side of life.

My new series of digital images is the product of a trip taken to the city of Chicago in September of 2017. I visited Millennium Park which is the site of Anish Kapoor's Cloud Gate sculpture. The artwork is amazing in the way it reflects the urban skyline.

I'd been working with symmetrical imagery for awhile. When I saw Cloud Gate I was moved by the way it transformed the local environment. It seemed to me that the objects visual power was strongly dependent on the surroundings and the sculpture's ability to create a synergy.

With that in mind I took a series of digital photographs of the downtown area. These were edited to collage imagery that merges geometry with reflection creating visual structures.

A Geometric Garden

Island Circles is a collection of abstract geometric designs created by scanning photographs of the north shore of Kauai then digitally manipulating the images. The intent is to create balanced tranquil compositions that convey the underlying feel of the place.

Tulips are examined through the mirrors of a kaleidoscope then transformed into a vector imagery. All of the images in this series were created from digital photos taken at the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival in April of 2014.

Rhythm of Spring

The evolution of the Moku Kapa Series goes back several years. It all started during extended stays on the island of Kauai. I frequently carried a small pocket camera and took many rolls of film. The pictures were developed at a local drug store to be used as references when I worked on pastels and paintings. Eventually I returned to Washington State and packed them away. A number of years passed. Then one random Sunday afternoon I got this idea and made this series of digital vector prints.

Moku Kapa

The title Kaluwela Moku is composed of two Hawaiian words. The first means glowing colorful. Moku means island. The imagery in this series of digital prints was created using photographs taken with a Fugi pocket camera on the island of Kauai. The film was developed and printed at Long's Drugstore in Kapaa. The prints were then scanned and digitally edited. The complete series can be viewed at www.beach.artistwebsites.com
