NOTE: ALL ARTWORK PRINTS WILL FROM NOW ON BE GICLEE PRINTS [even if the artwork listing says "C print"] as the only photo lab that I trust to make my prints has stopped making "C prints" and will only make Giclee prints. I have far too many artworks to change each listing, so let this notice serve to indicate that ALL PRINTS FROM NOW ON WILL BE GICLEE PRINTS

A Note About My Artwork Classification - Since I am now producing quite a few digital artworks as well as photographic artworks, I wanted to clarify how I categorize them. If an image starts as a file produced by light from the real world passing through a lens, I categorize these artworks as photography, no matter how much I may alter these files or use just microscopic snippets of them. But if the artwork file starts just as a file made by me on my computer, then these artworks I classify as digital artworks.

Took photography courses w/ Minor White (student Ansel Adams) & animation courses w/ Derek Lamb a noted animation artist
