The photographs presented are a representation of continuing bodies of work I consider as paintings or drawings manifested in photographic form. While shot digitally, the images are all produced in camera with no photoshop or A.I. I am manipulating reality through long exposures, “painting” with the camera, using found forms or physically creating shapes of light with the camera to create the image. Often times using mundane moments of the day and presenting them in a way the viewer may never have noticed or considered to be beautiful. I am making the simple visual, making the simple energetic, making the simple peaceful, making the simple bold, making the simple calm, making the simple important – making the simple complicated. I am creating what you cannot fully see.
