About the Artist....

The world around me is full of wonder and amazement....and more importantly, it never ceases to capture my vision. There are so many things that we miss out on simply because we are too busy to stop and take notice.

My photography is reality based. I take the mundane, find the beauty held in the details, and let my lens capture the hidden beauty which is nothing short of sublime.

like many photographers, most of my focus has turned towards digital photography as of late, but I don't think that digital photography can ever take the place of film photography. They are two similar yet different means of capturing a vision, and as such, I will continue to embrace both methods to show the world as I see it.

I grew up in Akron, Ohio...in the fallout of the rubber industry. I feel it was this decaying suburban landscape which taught me to find the hidden beauty in everything that I see...The abandoned rubber factories became my playground and my source of inspiration.

I studied photography and sculpture at the University of Akron's Myer's School of Art and now I reside in Nottingham, England. My subjects have changed, but my vision still falls on the beauty of the ordinary...I do freelance and fine art photography, a bit of sculpting now and again...and I've even been known to do a painting or two.

My digital art is dream based. I live with my head in the clouds and I seen lots of interesting things while I'm up there. In my world anything can happen, and quite often it does. Where would humans be if it were not for the ability to dream? To be honest, I'd rather not find out.

I hope you will enjoy these images as much as I've enjoyed capturing and creating them....
