"When from our better selves we have too long
Been parted by the hurrying world, and droop,
Sick of its business, of its pleasures tired,
How gracious, how benign, is Solitude."

Throne
Throne Chair Series - March 2007.
The "throne chair" featured in this series belonged to my Great,great
Grandfather, who resided in Chicago. On Sunday October
8, 1871, the Great Chicago Fire struck the city. While
fleeing the fire, the chair was placed in a horse drawn conveyance,
and was one of the few items that survived from their
residence. The chair was later restored my Grandfather, and
through the course of time, ultimately ended up in my studio.

Rhythm
An ongoing series featuring experiments with rhythm and motion, started in November 2006. This series was initially inspired by Eadweard Muybridge's
Animal Locomotion series of work. As the project progressed, it turned into something entirely different.

Asylum
Images taken at the Northern Michigan Asylum (Traverse City State Hospital). These are a mix of High Dynamic Range (HDR) images and Infrared images. The infrared photos were taken in zero light conditions, which made it particularly difficult (photography requires light!)

The Old Trunk
An old trunk, dated sometime around the 1890's. There's a girl in the picture as well.

Ethereal Planes
A short series of high-key work - December 2006.

 |
Black and White Nudes
Black and White Figure studies shot in my studio (1999 to present), including a mix of high key and low key style nudes.
|
 |
The Red Barn Nudes
Infrared figure studies shot in or around a red barn. Since the images are black and white, this isn't obvious... of course.
Infrared photography records reflected infrared light (not thermal infrared). Since infrared light is absorbed differently by the skin, the results are somewhat different than traditional photography.
