Artist statement
Multiple images, blended together to form a single image, is the evolution of my 50 years of photography. In this series, the finished photographs are made up of between two to eight images. When I look for light and form to come together into a photo, it could be an abstract, nature, human interest or a landscape photo. Using both film and digital cameras, I finish the image in the digital darkroom. I continue to photograph with vintage film cameras, Holga, Polaroid and pinhole imagery in formats up to 4x5, and experiment with camera-less lumens.
